Pedal Change, "Variable pedal mark" is not exported or imported with MusicXML files.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Music-pedal.svg

musicXML-part not imported with MuseScore (added " in front of each < to display xml):
[direction placement="below">
[direction-type>
[pedal type="change" line="yes"/>
[/direction-type>
[/direction>

Export do not have the part ", only " and "

Have tested with MuseScore 2.0.2 and latest MuseScore Nightly 2.0.3 and 2.1

Not sure what brought this back up, but anyhow, this is still not right (differently so) in current builds. The original file isn't so good of a test any more, try the attached instead. Not only are the endings not exported, but the attachments are wrong as well. I think we changed how these work at some point but forgot to update the MusicXML export.

musicXML-part not imported with MuseScore (switched <> with [] to display the xml):
[direction placement="below”]
[direction-type]
[pedal type="change" line="yes”/]
[/direction-type]
[/direction]

Export to MusicXML do not have the part [pedal type="change" line="yes”/], only [pedal type="start" line="yes”/] and [pedal type="stop" line="yes”/]

Have tested with MuseScore 2.0.2 and latest MuseScore Nightly 2.0.3 and 2.1

Fixing this is still an open issue. Unfortunately, when I investigated the issue, the MuseScore and MusicXML pedal data model were quite different. This means that fixing these issues is non-trivial.
