I do. Hans has a point in saying that "non-Western" isn't quite
appropriate; however there's no way we'll start putting acronyms in
section titles ("non-CPP"), and "Common Practice Period" is just too
long and confusing.

What I really really dislike is "World music". However I never
objected or made a fuss about it, because I realize we need to give
this section a title, and it has to be short and easy-to-get, no
matter how obnoxious and crypto-colonialist it may otherwise sound.

Oh, that was what I've been looking for without realizing it! Indeed,
it will make things much more consistent.

Oh, really? Then we are not amused.

I've added "*automatic* beaming behaviour, as it makes a lot more sense to me.

And now, how GTY does it L? :-)
