IWBNI, when the checkbox Auto Bracket is selected on the Tuplet Definition dialog box for a given tuplet, a bracket were shown automatically in the case when the set of notes in the tuplet is a proper subset of a set of notes in a beam group. (Here, "proper" subset means a subset that is smaller than the set for which it is a subset. For example, {1,2} and {1,2,3} are subsets of {1,2,3} but only {1,2} is a proper subset). As it is now, one may uncheck the checkbox Auto Bracket to display a bracket for such tuplets.

For example, as it is now, with Auto Bracket selected a bracket would not be displayed in the measure shown in the following figure:

It is proposed here that a bracket be displayed automatically in such situations as shown in the following figure:
