Remember we already have <handDesc> (manuscript description). The 
business of describing hands is still quite dirty and we already went 
through this before the release of P5.

To close the issue at the time we kept both something that could go in 
the header even without using the manuscript module (<handNotes>) and 
something that would fit within the manuscript module (<handDesc>).

It's not just a matter of element names...

Are we re-opening that thorny issue?
