\ottava produces *ottava brackets* in the output, so this perfectly
makes sense, and \ottava is shorter to type, isn't it Valentin ;-) ?

These are my 2 cents, nothing else.  I generally don't care so much
about command names, so I will no longer argue for this particular
command.

Maybe set-octavation declaration as public scm function should be
scraped BTW.

Cheers,

PS: I'm not at home from tomorrow to Friday, I will daily look for an
Internet connection, but I'm afraid I'll not be more available as I've
been recently (long replying delay, very few commits to Git) :-/
