A few minor comments: - Why are the links to the Program reference of LedgerLineSpanner and NoteHead in the subsection on Accidentals? To me it would be just as intuitive (or non-intuitive) to have these links some other of subsubsections of 1.1 Pitches, or even in 1.1 Pitches itself. The c

There's a proposal to rename the three subsections in Pitches to: 1.1 Input (writing pitches) 1.2 Modifying (changing pitches) 1.3 Output (displaying pitches) The subsubsections will remain exactly the way they are on opihi right now; this is only a proposal about renaming the subsections. Dis
