as far as I know when flagged notes with hollow heads are used, they are
used exclusively, i.e. there are no black notes at all (more precisely, all
black notes count as notae coloratae, which is a separate notehead style
anyway, and from duration point of view they behave just as their hollow
counterparts, i.e. a note with one flag is a semiminima, etc.).
so I suggest to use a symbolic style property for heads and stems each,
to decide whether head coloring is mixed (the current system with flagging
starting at fusa - 8) or consistent hollow/black (and flagging starting at
semiminima - 4).

thanks for your work!
Pal
