Re: String at the bottom of a cover page without using \markup

Hi Paolo,

To be precise, it has to *have the potential* to recur: a footer on a one-page 
document doesn't recur, but it's still a footer.

As I see it, the problem here is that the documentation isn't clear that 
"copyright" is simply a property that happens to be "pre-defined", in the sense 
that it's referenced somewhere [specifically titling-init.ly > oddFooterMarkup] 
in the standard distro. It could just as easily been called 'kieren' or 
anything else.

Put another way: The copyright property isn't a footer, nor is it coupled with 
the footer in any way *except* that the default titling includes it on the 
first page [only].

Cheers,
Kieren.
