That looks good. About the \ictus\melisma etc, I suggested you model
things on the ornaments, which apply directives to the chord object
(i.e. they use d-DirectivePut-chord-xxx commands).
It would be better to apply the directives to the notes (you won't have
any multi-note chords). The reason I say this is that when it comes to
making the display show the neumes the d-DirectivePut-note-graphic
procedure will place the graphic where the note head comes (when
DENEMO_OVERRIDE_GRAPHIC is set on the directive), while for the chord it
places it below the chord.

I'm getting to the end of the chunk of work I'm doing now and should be
able to help more soon.
