The matrix editor mirrors the Notation editor in many ways.  I've
generally found that when I write something for Notation, the code for
Matrix is almost exactly the same, just all the names refer to different
things.  Like NotationWidget -> MatrixWidget, NotationView -> MatrixView,
etc.

In fact, they mirror each other so much that I dream of moving the
duplicated code to a common base class, adding virtual functions as
needed.  I fear to make such a big structural change, though, even though
it looks harmless.

Sounds much like how I use it.  I originally thought I'd be doing more
MIDI capture, but I found I was re-editing my performance in such detail
that I could more easily just enter stuff from the computer keyboard.
