IMO, having this as a fully-automatic feature is a bad idea. What if you 
want a note in the score that shouldn't be put in the part? This kind of 
update is also very slow, so it has to be done when the user tells he got 
time for the update.

Btw, I believe Tobias talked about working on a score-to-part updater 
between documents (for Fin2003).

For Jazz, this is what the Jazz rythm section plug-in in Fin2003 can be 
used for.

You already have programmable metatool keys for your own 
transpositions (6 through 9).
