Although currently it cannot distinguish between upward and downward
arpeggios? I've never actually seen a downward arpeggio in printed
piano music, I assume it's just an arrowhead at the bottom of the
squiggly line? Debussy or Liszt or someone must have used this at some
point.
I'm interested because I've written one myself in my piano music (see
DownloadLilypondScores webpage). I'm not sure how hard this would be
to hack, not yet having studied the source closely.
