Johan,

Your point is well taken, but let's be clear that LP is first and 
foremost focused on beautiful music engraving. Audio playback is here 
to stay, I'm sure, but there's still a lot of work to do with it, and I 
don't know if that will ever be a top priority. 

Now, I understand that the user base is more of a modern, more general 
audience that finds the audio playback useful and desirable (myself 
included). However, that is NOT what attracts me to LP, nor many 
others, I'd guess. Personally, the basic playback is sufficient--useful 
for audio-proofing. Anything more advanced should probably be done in a 
dedicated audio mixer.

Anyways, back to the current question (maybe we should start a new 
thread to discuss this): 

Should the LP engine, upon encountering a "\repeat volta" section, 
automatically, under the covers, force that repeat structure upon the 
other simultaneous staves/voices, which do NOT contain that same 
structure, so that it gives the correct output under \unfoldRepeats? 

I don't know what the right answer is. From a music playback 
perspective, I think the answer is yes. Otherwise, I'm not sure it 
matters. The way I code doesn't even make this an issue, as shown in my 
previous example, so I guess my voice is quite small on the matter.
