I see, so it's more for authoring help. In that case I would regard it
as classes and what you have done up there is good. If it gets
displayed, that's ok. You could put the blank inside with the etc:
<c.glenn> etc</c> for example to cope with the blank issue.
I really don't think we need to make up something new for this - it
already works as you requested. But I would in addition want line
comments, just so you can comment out full cues or leave comments on
cues.
