Future Changelog for 1.7.2

• Probably the most important thing we plan is to keep track of whatever gets done in trunk for 1.7.x so that we make sure to port it to the 2.0/QT4 branch when the time comes.

• Use the same order of menu items in the right-mouse button menu for both note insertion and rest insertion (Heikki, rev. 8977)
• Make changing between non-dotted notes and dotted rests on the various notation editor toolbars more sensible (Heikki, rev. 8979)
• New LilyPond export option to interpret chord texts as lead sheet chord names (Heikki, rev. 8983)
• Place the chords above the staff in the notation view (works for the first segment in the track) (Heikki, rev. 8984)
• Fix the placing of the chords if the segment does not start from first bar (Heikki, rev. 8984)
• Allow lead sheets with only a single chord (Heikki, rev. 8984)

• Prevent crash when changing from the rest insertion to the note insertion in NotationView using the right-mouse button menu (Heikki, rev. 8977)
• Fix updating the note/rest duration buttons in NotationView when changing the dotting of notes or rests with the period (`.') button (Heikki, rev. 8977)
• Fix broken export of invisible key signatures to LilyPond (Michael, rev. 8989)
• The notation editor now comes up with its default accidental entry mode (“No accidental”) shown to be in effect, instead of leaving it to be assumed (Heikki, rev 8995))
