Indeed.
I didn't intend to object, just to point to possible expectations.
Also, adding post-events to non-existing notes does not make a lot of
sense, musically speaking, yes.
But LilyPond accepts already
{ <>^.\fermata }
Ok, the output is bad, but the "does it make sense?"-argument is then
not that strong, imho.
Other 5181-topic:
In your patch description you wrote about the problem with
c-\single \dynamicUp \f
Here I can't follow, compiling this with 2.18.2 and current master
returns no noticeable difference for me, even using
display(Lily)Music.
May be I overlooked something.
Could you explain a bit more verbose?
Cheers,
Harm
