I'm in favor of option 1 <marker> except that I think </marker> can be tolerated as kind of "retrograded" but valid syntax, and it is simply ignored by the parser.

For context, see https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1029 and https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/931. These two features will require some kind of "marker" to be placed in gabc, but unlike the current tags (like <b>...</b>), these "markers" don't need to (and should not) be closed. The developers are at an impasse as to the best notation for this. There are three options: - <marker> (with no (</marker>), which may confuse people used to XML) - <marker/> (this is XML-like, but may be hard to remember) - $marker$ (which makes it obvious this is different, but is different) Does anyone on the list have an opinion on which form they find least confusing/difficult-to-use?
