That's stunning. I even managed to find out what a treble clef was
called using its sister site that does Unicode symbols.

A more modest goal would be to add an example of any feature (as it is
added to Denemo) to the Denemo score that shows "all features" (sadly
that score has never achieved this status in reality). Then people can
scan the typeset score looking for the feature they want and read about
what it is called.
