Sounds good to me.

I don't understand.  Do you mean that if an articulation is applied to
EventChord, it would be automatically applied to EventChord's elements
("moved to elements level")?  Or that articulations applied to whole
EventChord will be applied on top of articulations applied to
elements?
(If i screwed this completely, you don't have to waste a lot of time explaining)
