Another requested feature at that time was the cue notes problem:
You want to print cue notes only when extracting parts, but not when
printing the whole score. Hence, just tag all cue notes and filter
them out when printing the whole score.
Not to negate your point for using tags here but in many cases cues
are so that a line can be played by a substitute instrument when the
intended instrument is not available. In those cases the conductor
needs the cues in the score to know what substitutions are easily
possible.
True, but that's a decision to be made by the user. In some cases
(mostly
wind band and musicals, in my experience) these cue notes are useful; in
other cases (say, a Romantic symphony for full orchestra) those cue
notes would
not be good. We should let the user/publisher decide for themselves.
