Crosses in tablature

[Marius Andersen]

Hi and thanks to everyone who has helped me so far.

I'd like to display a few notes as crosses in the TabStaff context. For REGULAR 
staffs, the following indeed works:

    \new Staff {
      \override NoteHead  #'style = #'cross
      c c c c

      % To switch back:
      \override NoteHead  #'style = #'default

      % Or even shorter:
      \tweak #'style #'cross c
    }

These commands, when used in the Staff context, give me nice cross noteheads -- 
i.e., stopped/dampened notes as far as guitar is concerned. However, they have 
NO effect in the TabStaff context:

    \new TabStaff {
      % This doesn't work

      \override NoteHead  #'style = #'cross
      c c c c

      \override NoteHead  #'style = #'default

      \tweak #'style #'cross c
    }

In other words, I cannot get an "X" on one of the tablature lines, and so, 
cannot write dampened notes for guitar.

Any ideas?
