Event classes are defined in scm/define-event-classes.scm.  They are 
arranged in a hierarchy rooted in StreamEvent, eg

StreamEvent
 music-event
   rhythmic-event
     melodic-event
       note-event, cluster-note-event  (these are leaf events)

Each event class is also a member of all higher event classes in the 
hierarchy.

But I don't know which of these can be used in quotedCueEventTypes. 
Clearly not all of them are relevant, but you could try out likely 
ones to see if they work.
