Re: Bug or Feature?: Lyrics have no durations

[Juergen Reuter]

I think I already proposed this feature request, but anyway:
When \addlyrics or \lyricsto is used, but the user nevertheless provides 
durations along with the lyrics, maybe lily should just spit out a warning
saying that the durations will be ignored.

Greetings,
Juergen
