2.14 has been "a month or two away" for the past 8 months, so I'm
beginning to massively pad my estimates -- but they'll probably
still be too optimistic.  :(

Good point.  What was your opinion on \newcresc again?  I remember
somebody suggesting it, and I think I remember somebody pointing
out some problems with that approach... but if we could add the
new functionality without changing the old commands, that would be
ideal.
