Hi,

I've noticed that there is only one "musical symbol multi rest" in the
musical symbol block, and the symbol is not the one I'm used to (but
this doesn't matter much).

Yet, there exist a "double rest" and a "quadruple rest" symbols.
http://dept-info.labri.fr/~thibault/rests.eps shows an example of how
some musical publishers write 7 rests for instance: a quadruple rest, a
double rest, and a "whole rest" (which I'd call a single rest). They
don't seem to have a symbol for "octuple rest" or more: they use a multi
rest symbol.

Have double and quadruple rest symbols ever been considered to be coded
in unicode ? I guess this would be useful.

Regards,
Samuel
PS: at last it got on the list...
