Hi Urs,

You could even write
"T EXGY   Read vento R"

The styles, however, have to be separated by space(s) and they also have to
be separated from the font family name.

These are the keys used for the font buffering hash table built from the
font-name specified and the Pango font size (this is an absolute font size
not depending on the current LilyPond output scale).

Spaces will be transformed into _ and everything will be converted to lower
case. Physically, it's the same font in both cases.

In the extreme example with "T EXGY   Read vento R", the internally used
font key will be:
[t_exgy___read_vento_r_3.8662109375]
When using 12pt instead of the standard 11pt font size, the generated key
name will be:
[t_exgy___read_vento_r_4.2177734375]
