        -> this breaks MusicXml import/export for slurs
      - changed implementation of grace notes: grace notes now have the
        same tick position as their main note. This ensures that segments

      _ extend time signature palette for custom time signatures
      - fix layout of instrument names

        from constant to variable is is now saved in the *.msc file.
      - Don't add a "generated" time signature to first staff in a score.
        Time signatures must always be explicit added. This allows for different
        symbols (example: "alla breve") for first time signature (or for no
        symbol at all)
19.12 (ws)
      * Changed TimeSig base class from Compound to Element.

        (bug resulted in first a-g key being ignored)
      * fixed crash on startup when .mscorePrj does not contain any loaded file
22.9 (ws)
      * removed pick/put mode of palettes. Only dragging of palette
        items is possible.
20.9 (ws)
      * more cleanups
19.9 (ws)
      * moved to subversion repository
      * moved buildsystem to CMake
15.9 (ws)
      * remove new Element(&Element)
      * remove Element->clone()

      * remove generated file "libtool" from repository
03.09 (lv)
      * prevent crash when first voice does not contain note, but second does
