Well, with regard to repeats in your first option, we _could_ quite 
easily make repeat marks that displayed and could be edited in the 
Rosegarden notation editor, and exported to Lilypond, but were not 
actually played in Rosegarden.

Or, we could make repeat marks that displayed and could be edited in 
Rosegarden's notation editor _and_ might even play, but weren't easily 
(meaningfully) displayed or edited in the sequencer bit.

Hm.

Good summary.

I think it's about time we made an experimental branch for messing about 
with notation stuff.  One of the problems we've had is that it's too 
easy to break things, and in a way that can take a lot of time and work 
to recover.  I quite like the idea of being able to mess about and try 
out no-more-than half-worked-out thoughts again.
