I would like to see some notations in the manual `expanded�. Especially,
it would be very useful to include in Section `5.7.8 Articulations� with all
accents, pralls, mordents, etc. explanations how these marks have been used in
the past. For example, give briefly an etymologic overview on how J.S. Bach used
`turn�, `mordent�, `prall�.

Absolutely not. We could include that in the music glossary, or as a separate document, but that info definitely doesn't belong in the reference manual.

Actually, isn't such info somewhere on the 'net already?  We could
link to some existing pages that explain the etymology behind
articulations.
