Description
Your idea
Allow roman numerals to be used for instrument numbering.
Problem to be solved
We should be able to support a common convention that section players (e.g. orchestral strings) use roman numerals while single players use Arabic numerals.
@avvvvve Possibly there should be a toggle in Style per instrument section (see screenshot from Style > Instrument names > Group names for reference), and/or a switch for individual instruments in Instrument/staff properties.
