The fact that beaming is sometimes wrong is a separate issue -- that's 
just poor beaming code.  (Aside: the auto-beaming code is the oldest 
part of the current Rosegarden.  Not only was it copied straight from 
Rosegarden 2.x, it was already one of the oldest bits of that.)

Our time signature code does already know about divisions and 
subdivisions, as you can see from the metronome configuration, and it's 
quite capable of being used to add the subdivision ticks to the ruler 
where necessary.  The less immediately obvious part is stating which 
time signatures should only be shown with primary subdivisions (e.g. 
4/4) and which should have secondary divisions as well (e.g. 6/8).  
Maybe we should just show secondary divisions in dotted times and not 
otherwise.
