Not on *my* system it doesn't :^(

Anyway, the parts of a medley are often tunes in their own right. Maybe
the best solution would be a way to specify a layout like

  +------------------------+------------------------+
  |    THE DUKE OF PERTH   | Bar              Trad. |
  |      RSCDS Book I      | ====================== |
  |                        | ====================== |
  | The Duke of Perth Trad.| ====================== |
  | ====================== | ====================== |
  | ====================== |                        |
  | ====================== | Baz              Trad. |
  | ====================== | ====================== |
  |                        | ====================== |
  | Foo              Trad. | ====================== |
  | ====================== | ====================== |
  | ====================== |                        |
  | ====================== |                        |
  | ====================== |                        |
  +------------------------+------------------------+

which today I'm writing like

  X:0
  T:The Duke of Perth
  T:RSCDS Book I
  R:Reel
  K:G

  X:1
  P:The Duke of Perth
  C:Trad.
  R:Reel
  M:C
  K:G
  ...

  X:1
  P:Foo
  C:Trad.
  R:Reel
  M:C
  K:D
  ...

such that I could use »T:« for the titles of the subordinate tunes?
This would mean that there must be a way to arrange for the title of
the first »tune« to span the page in a suitably enlarged, bold,
... font but for the other tunes' titles to be displayed as »P:« is
today. This is something I would be perfectly happy with; in fact it
would please me even more than the current, slightly unsavoury
»solution« with »P:«.
