Werner, I'll do it, but I've had second
thoughts.  If we make this change it will
give all multi-measure rest text priority
over script text, which may not be desirable.
Priority should be given only to fermata.
Text script and multi-measure rest text other
than fermata should continue to be prioritised
according to which comes first, as now.

So instead I propose to change the definition
of \fermataMarkup to:

fermataMarkup =
#(make-music 'MultiMeasureTextEvent
  'tweaks (list
            ; Set the 'text based on the 'direction
            (cons 'text (lambda (grob)
              (if (eq? (ly:grob-property grob 'direction) DOWN)
                (markup #:musicglyph "scripts.dfermata")
                (markup #:musicglyph "scripts.ufermata"))))
            (cons 'outside-staff-priority 40)))

This works, but I'm not sure if I've got
the Scheme indentation right.

Carl, as my first frogs task could you please
check this out before I commit?
