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

Hi all,

It occurs to me that this whole discussion might really be a discussion about 
\header disguised as a discussion about footer(s)… I've always thought it's not 
particulary intuitive to write

\header {
  myFooterProperty = …
}

Instead, something like

\documentProperties {
  title = …
  myFooterProperty = …
}

makes way more sense [to me], and would potentially reduce confusion amongst 
new users.

Cheers,
