Known issues and warnings

Calling \relative on a music expression obtained by filtering music
through \keepWithTag or \removeWithTag might cause the octave relations
to change, as only the pitches actually remaining in the filtered
expression will be considered. Applying \relative first, before
\keepWithTag or \removeWithTag, avoids this danger as \relative then
acts on all the pitches as-input.
