Setting top staff to small affects some texts that are attached to the system rather than the staff, like measure numbers, tempo markings, rehearsal marks, system text, volta, repeats and jumps

Instead it should affect staff ralated things only, like instrument change and staff text

Probably there should be a checkbox in the text style/properties to control this, like the current "size follows staff space", because sometimes you might still want the small text, but yeah, I think this should be addressed.

I have also experienced this issue when adding an Ossia staff. The workaround I used was to manually adjust/resize all the elements of the affected part one by one (multiplying each sizing factor by 10/7 to undo the "70%" default for a "small staff"). Fortunately, my score was small.

Nevertheless, it'd be great to see a fix for this.

So, does everyone agree this is just wrong? Am preparing a fix...
