I don't think this is a good idea.  How would the reader know at which
moment during the MMR the tenth bar begins?  Also, imagine a 50-bar MMR.
where all these numbers would go?

What we should do in my opinion is print a /range/ of barnumbers when a MMR
appears, something like in the attachment.  That would be awesome and very
useful. (and btw, i think Finale has that feature).

best,
Janek
