Re: stanzas outside the music

[Dunstan Vavasour]

  Here's an example which I put together late last year - I know it's
lengthy, but it shows what can be done.

  I would much prefer if I could input verse text into a variable and
then either put it between the staves or as a freestanding verse at
the end, using high level functions rather than layout specific
markup. Should we approach Han-Wen to see if this could be a feature
candidate for v 2.9?
