Heh I write my own music, although in this case it's more of a transcription of
a jazz solo. I'm just used to writing these with a slash, therefore 
acciaccatura.

Would you be against the addition of that feature? Outside of classical music
it seems pretty simple to me, I want a note with a slash, otherwise the reading
is more difficult because it looks too much like a normal note ;)

I'm just not sure what would be a good GUI for it
(is there a need to select this on a per note basis, or would a global option 
affecting
all notes be enough? should be per-document though, not like an app option)
