The amount of tuning that is possible with clefs is already over the
top: you can set octavation by appending _8 or ^8, you can edit
scm/clef.scm and add "oldbassclef" clef types, and you can define a

        oldClef = {
                \set Staff.clefGlyph = #"clefs-F"
                \set Staff.clefPosition = #2
                \set Staff.middleCPosition = #-1
        }

why would I want to add another layer?  If possible I can add another
option to clef.scm to suppress printing of the 8 on the clef.
