Then I’d like if we don’t take that obstacle for granted. Why don’t we 
have an event? I can imagine the reason: because the clef or bar line 
isn’t actually a musical event, but only an element of visualisation… as 
for the clef also because it mainly changes some context properties… But 
either we be so pragmatic and make them be Events nevertheless (maybe 
such as aren’t carried into Midi, or are they?), or we need to ask: why 
does it need an event for point-and-click?
