That would simplify things a bit. It makes number in identifiers even
harder to do because of var = c:maj7m5 (but I don't mind that).
We would need to distinguish the uses of all the chord delimiters
: (tremolo) ^ (raised fingering) - (postevent) etc.
But weren't we supposed to "bring it in the form of a parser patch" ?
We have only so much time. Don't waste it with fluffing around.
