I also play guitar, although I've never used tablature myself. I
imagine that you would want to write conventional mudela, together with
some indicator of which string each note would be played on? This would
seem to be in keeping with the spirit of mudela, and would mean the
pieces could be output as midi for testing purposes.
It would also be sort of cool if you could include an algorithm to pick
the default string, so that perhaps you wouldn't need to specify the
string to use unless the algorithm guesses wrong.
Just a few thoughts.
