Yes, that's what I thought too.

Some of them are good, some of them less so, I think.
Maybe we could start going through the existing snippets and consider 
possible tags for each of them. This will make a pool of suggestions 
where we can filter out from.

One question I still have is: Should the tags be flat too, i.e. single 
independent tags, or could there also be a hierarchy (which would then 
be reflected in the documentation)?

For example I could imagine tagging a snippet
markup->headers or
notation->rhythm->polymetrics

It would also make sense to use the same structure as in the Notation 
Reference. Hm?

I had partially done that already, but only on the Wiki, not in the 
README. I've now updated both (this duplication isn't intended to be 
persistent...).
