I've seen this symbol already in print, so it is not something we
`invent'. I was rather talking about designing it from scratch.
For example, it might be possible to simply reuse the
`scripts.reverseturn' glyph with an added vertical bar crossing it.
However, IIRC, Haydn just uses a small wiggle, so `reverseturn' might
be not appropriate, and we need probably a different shape.
