)The documentation on script-priority in s.1.3.1 of the NR ("Controlling the
)vertical ordering of scripts") only mentions scripts attached to single
)notes. Maybe a sentence or two should be added regarding chords.
)Paraphrasing what you have written above: "Note that if scripts are
)attached to different notes in a chord, scripts attached to a lower note will
)always appear below scripts attached to a higher note, regardless of any
)script-priority that has been set."

[James' reply:] This is an LSR snippet.

http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=447

I've checked the CG and it only talks about if the docs fail to compile, vs 
updating an LSR snippet.

Do I just go in and do this edit directly on the snippet and then send the 
email to dev?
