Oops - I *used* to know the manuals very well - I proofread them from cover to cover back in Graham's day ...
I know a lot has changed since then - as I said \fermata didn't even work on notes back then - but there's a lot that's changed since then. Having a comprehensive out-of-date knowledge can bite you ... and I don't use lily enough to keep up with the changes.
That said, this *is* the user list, and sometimes RTFM is a good answer. Although I hate it when they don't tell you where in the FM to R. (That's not the case here, though, I ought to be able to find it very easily :-) Often it's not knowing WHAT to look for that's the problem, as in here I thought I knew about fermata ...
As David Wright said, it seems MMRs are just one big quirk (as I'm finding out with this piece), so that's probably a big job to address :-(We'd probably have less inclination to address the quirks eventually.
