In fact, the above method of doing this is not only unwieldy, but also
wrong: it doesn't tell LilyPond what this sign is (how it affects the
score, what should be played in MIDI). We definitely need a way to
/express/ musical meaning in Lily syntax. \mark \markup {
\musicglyph #"scripts.segno" } is just printing a nice graphic.
