Hi Kieren,
I thought of a change - or addition - like your proposal. At least
the "counter" should be exchangable by the context-id.
That way partcombined voices can be addressed by "up", "down" and
so on. I can't say, if it is managable to omit the context-name
(Voice or Staff or else). But we will see.
So, yes, I consider it ;)
Best, Jan-Peter

I think the stated problem would be solved *AND* the whole machinery made more intuitive by allowing a context to be “direct addressed”, i.e., the context
\new Staff = “MyStaff” \someMusic
would be mod-ed using something like
\editionMod ThisEdition 1 0/4 APiece.MyStaff \override …
as opposed to
\editionMod ThisEdition 1 0/4 APiece.Staff.B \override …
It seems like a very small change — and might mess up your “templating” system(s) — but three obvious and immediate benefits are: the ability to move contexts within the score block without having to recode the edition; the ability to change the type of context without recoding the edition; and the ability to quickly cross-reference a mod with its context (i.e., no need to “count” contexts).
Consider it?
Thanks,
Kieren.
