Thanks, I've reworded the paragraph.

Would it be possible (useful?) to have some simple @code{} examples to
better illustrate some of the Scheme entries (rather than complete
@lilypond or @example examples)?

address@hidden
address@hidden's handing of repeated note durations has been
+improved.
+
address@hidden
address@hidden and @code{\addLyrics} have been @q{harmonized}.  Both
+now accept the same kind of delimited argument list that @code{\lyrics}
+and @code{\chords} accept.  Backward compatibility has been added so
+music identifiers (i.e. @code{\mus}) are permitted as arguments.  A
address@hidden rule has been added that removes redundant uses of
address@hidden and rearranges combinations with context starters such
+that @code{\lyricsto} in general is applied last (i.e. like
address@hidden would be).
+
address@hidden
+Scheme functions and identifiers can now be used as output definitions.
+
address@hidden
+Scheme expressions can now be used as chord constituents.
+
address@hidden
+Improved visual spacing of small and regular @q{MI} Funk and Walker
+noteheads so they are now the same width as other shaped notes in
+their respective sets.  @code{SOL} noteheads are also now visually
+improved when used with both the normal Aiken and Sacred Harp heads, as
+well as with the thin variants.
+
address@hidden
address@hidden now has a definable @code{Y-extent} (i.e.vertical).  See
address@hidden
+
address@hidden
+Added a new @code{make-path-stencil} function that supports all
address@hidden commands both relative and absolute:
+
address@hidden, @code{rlineto}, @code{curveto}, @code{rcurveto},
address@hidden, @code{rmoveto}, @code{closepath}.  The function also
+supports @q{single-letter} syntax used in standard SVG path commands:
+
address@hidden, @code{l}, @code{C}, @code{c}, @code{M}, @code{m}, @code{Z} and
address@hidden  The new command is also backward-compatible with the original
address@hidden function.  Also see
address@hidden/stencil.scm}.
+
address@hidden
+Chord change detection in @code{\repeat} alternatives now happens in
+relation to the chord active at the @emph{beginning} of the @emph{first}
+alternative.
+
address@hidden
+Improved MIDI output for breathe marks.  After tied notes, breaths take
+time @emph{only} from the last note of the tie; e.g.
address@hidden@{ c4~ c8 \breathe @}} performs as @address@hidden c4~ c16 r @}} 
instead
+of @address@hidden c4 r8 @}}.  This is more consistent with articulations and
+how humans interpret breaths after ties.  It now also makes it easier to
+align simultaneous breathe marks over multiple parts, all with different
+note lengths.
+
address@hidden
+A new note head style for Tabulature has been added;
address@hidden = #'slash}.

 @item
 Four new Clefs have been added.  @emph{Double G}, @emph{Tenor G},
