Indicating cross-staff chords with arpeggio bracket
An arpeggio bracket can indicate that notes on two different staves are to be played with the
same hand. In order to do this, the PianoStaff must be set to accept cross-staff arpeggios and
the arpeggios must be set to the bracket shape in the PianoStaff context.
