I use 9 key for single note editing here and there after a more massive enter 
done by keyboard. I always thought 9 key would definitely change the note into 
the new one; now, while following this discussion I've asked myself if this is 
no longer true: it looks like it lays the new looking note onto the first 
entered one, wich can eventually turn visible in a second moment.
