Ideas about enhancing manuscript language

Hello, I'm a blind musician. When I'm doing a project producing braille music from Sibelius exported musicxml, I discovered there are lots of things musicxml can't express. I asked Michael Good, and he said the Manuscript language is very limited. For example, the xml can't point out whether a text belongs to a staff or a system. Also, there are lots of lines and brackets in the xml, but in Sibelius, they are lots of different things such as arrows and different lines and brackets. Although I haven't learnt the language, I know what Michael means. Is it possible to enhance the accuracy of the manuscript language to export more detailed information in the future release of Sibelius? This will largely enhance the xml output, especially in the coming musicxml 3.1. Also, the braille transcription result will benefit from these enhancements. Since I'm launching such a big project, I hope the braille score can be more accurate and have less trouble for us to do post-editing. Thank you the team in advance! Regards Haipeng
