Oh... maybe there was another question in your post. I think the mapping to notation can be made unambigious with a little care. However... I think it would better to just support "shadowing" of segments: You can take a segment and place another instance of the same segment at any later point in the track. In notation this would be: Segments between the first and second instance are "1. Volta" IFF they are marked with a "volta" tag. If not, then the repeat is just written out. The first segment after the "shadow" instance is "2. Volta" IFF there was a "1. volta". ... and so on. So to do a drum fill you would just place the drum fill segment, and then shadow-copy your rythm-segment after it. This would just be written out in notation as: "rythm", percent-repeat, drum fill, rythm, percent-repeat.
