User control of the measure / beat character
separator when labeling time instants by
cyclical two-level counter might be useful.

For example, I use colons between the two
numbers, such as:
1:2 for measure 1, beat 2.

Or as another example, some users might like
using a dash:
1-2 for measure 1, beat 2.

Also, it might be useful to allow a
multi-string separator, so that
1::2 represents measure 1, beat 2.

Or another more general posibility :-)
is that the user can define a format string
such as "%m(%b)" which would generate
patterns such as:
1(2) which represents measure 1, beat 2.
where %m = measure number, and %b = beat
number. Alternatively, or in addition:
%C = counter, %c = fine counter, or some
other way of indicating the two couter
types.
