Feature request: tuplet rhythm flags

Dear all,

I’ve an idea for a feature which I think many would find useful, and I hope would be trivial to implement:

It would be great if a rhythm flag could accompany tuplets, so at a glance one could tell what the ratio pertains to. For example, if there was a tuplet of 7 demisemiquavers (32nds) in the time of 5, OM would display this as 7:5(32nd flag).

This is totally unnecessary for higher level-tuplets, but once we are two or three levels deep it would greatly simply the compositional process after the fact.

Just an idea, and I’m grateful for any thoughts on this.

All best as ever,

Nige
