 forgot to add:  maybe by default, if you request an n-tuplet with this feature
while the number of highlighted notes is LESS than n, denemo should create the
n-tuplet but compensate for the missing notes by inserting rests (the rests
FOLLOW the highlighted notes, by default)
 
Maybe for when the number of highlighted notes is GREATER than n, denemo could
either silently ignore the command, or throw some error message somewhere,  or
do something even more clever ... not sure.
