Outliers

Alex (?) made an interesting point at the meeting about how we decide which scores should be supported by MNX, and which should not. Even in the range of 1600 to 1900 there are some non-standard notations eg a Beethoven late quartet with dotted notes crossing barlines. In this case we could perhaps choose not to support it, since it is a shorthand which could be rewritten in the conventional way with tied notes.

I suggest we make a collection of images of these edge cases (including provenance info) and then it will be easy to define exactly which are supported.
Also it would be worth including samples from any date since most scored music even today is written in the conventional way and would be understood by Bach, Mozart or Brahms
