I would start to guess something like.. just faking it with
simultaneous overlapping beams. But I've given up in the past on doing
this exact thing more than once. I can't recall ever spending the time
to work it out. Are the beams for the subdivisions (beyond quavers)
always at least on one side or the other - and never both?
