183 - set different line sizes / thicknesses
184 - stem down too far right
185 - beam stem showthrough, inter beam sizes (french vs german style)

202 - add a \tablature {} lexer mode for easy entering
204 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.

318 - stack parameterised scripts for fingering and footing:
320 % toe to bheel four to five
326 (where "to" is a tiny bow)
328 * auxilliary file for caching info.
332 * clean solution for staffsize in items.
340 * scoping in Lexer: do general id- assignments in mudela.
