Do we need entries in Specialist notation for fingering?  This seems
too ubiquitous to be called "specialist", unless there are some special
considerations for some instruments - harp, maybe?  Or thumb for
strings?  If so, then an example of these could be shown, as below.

But I do anticipate sections like this in NR 2:

2.3 Unfretted string instruments
2.3.1 Bowed instruments
2.3.1.1 Artificial harmonics
       For a general description of special noteheads see 
@ref{Note heads}.  The use of diamond-shaped noteheads to
indicate harmonics on stringed instruments is shown below.
@lilypondfile{..} [..]
 (Example showing use of \harmonic)
@end lilypondfile

2.3.1.2 Bowing indications
        For a general description of expressive marks see
@ref{Expressive marks}.  An example of using expressive
marks to indicate up-bow and down-bow is shown below.
@lilypondfile{..} [..]
 (Example showing up-bow and down-bow markings) 
@end lilypondfile 

2.3.1.3 Fingering for bowed instruments [if needed]
        For a general description of fingering see
@ref{Fingering}.  An example of using fingering for
bowed strings is shown below.
@lilypondfile{..} [..]
 (Example showing indication of thumb etc) 
@end lilypondfile 

Examples are pulled in from lsr and will be
updated automatically if commands change.

We could also reference anything in lsr tagged with
"specialist, bowed instruments" etc to enable new examples
to be automatically included without the need to touch any
.itely files.  This would mean defining quite a few more tags 
though - would this be aceptable?
