use of @I{} in documentation

Hi all,

I was looking through Documentation/notation/rhythms.itely in order to fix
the beaming issue that Mats identified.

While doing so, I noticed that there were several places in that section
that used @i{} in order to set something in italics.  In one place, it was
notation, so it should have been @notation{}.  In another place, it was a
subheading, so it should have been @emph{}.

But when I looked in the CG, I could find no reference of @notation{} or
@emph{} in the syntax summary.

In my opinion, we should never use direct formatting commands such as @i{}
in the text.  We want logical descriptors, rather than formatting
descriptors.

Does anybody else agree with me?  Is this a discussion to postpone to GLISS?
I certainly wouldn't postpone 2.14 for it.

Thanks,

Carl
