Ha! I had just been mulling this over when you emailed. It looks like we
could offer a Denemo command to extract beam exceptions from the current
selection just by copying its LilyPond representation into a
\beamExceptions parameter. I was just trying to track down
\beamExceptions in the unstable documentation but that seems only to go
as far as 2.17 and you mentioned 2.19. I guess the documentation, such
as it is, is still in the devel-discussions (naturally). Well, all in
good time.
