There are probably fewer than ten people on the planet who have any idea 
what the ornament feature is for, so it's automatically in highly 
advanced territory.

Only by way of making it possible to avoid selecting all the notes in a 
tied series.

That works.  The problem is when you grab something with tied 
forward/backward properties without getting all the interrelated events 
at the same time.  Strange things can happen, because a note is supposed 
to be tied but can't be tied, because it has no mate(s).

This was especially a problem in the matrix, where there was just simply 
no way to know the events were tied at all, and that was the main 
motivation of making selections grab all the notes in a tied series, and 
forcing the whole thing to behave as one unit.
