1.4.1 Repeat syntax
1.4.2 Normal repeats
1.4.3 Manual repeat commands
1.4.4 Tremolo repeats
1.4.5 Measure repeats
since this leaves a further level for subdivision within
each section.

False. Look
Yes, absolutely.
I had suggested that earlier in the thread but then the idea came up that
transposition somehow implies a change of key. It most certainly does not.
And "displacement" is wholly wrong to my ears. Graphical noteheads can
displace (to the left or right in the interval of a second).
