[MEI-L] Slurs/ties across repetitions and/or endings

Hi,

I’m not going to suggest a third option, rather to register a preference.

By default, I think that Andrew’s solution is better than Craig’s (sorry Craig). If we believe that the slur should always prioritise the visual dimension, then any slur over a system break should be treated this way, which seems like a recipe for an encoding that is too susceptible minor engraving changes.

I do agree with Craig’s observation that we could do with the facility to distinguish visual and semantic start and end ids in general, though.
