Thanks a lot for this overview / comparison, Jean. I checked for the
docs of section labels and found nothing about their meaning. So adding
your reply to the doc might be valuable.

Best,

Stephan

      <p>A rehearsal mark (created with <code>\mark</code>) is, well,
        for rehearsal. It's just a convenient alternative or supplement
        to bar numbers. A section label (<code>\sectionLabel</code>)
        tells something about the music. For example, "Coda". This
        doesn't just mark a point in the score like "D" does, but
        implies something about the musical form. Same with "Intro" or
        "Chorus".</p>
      <p>Rehearsal marks have different default formatting than section
        labels.</p>
      <p>A metronome mark (<code>\tempo</code>), also called tempo mark,
        is for what the name says. A jump script (<code>\repeat segno</code>
        or <code>\jump</code>) indicates a jump in the performance,
        typically "Da capo", "Dal segno al coda" or such. The last type
        of textual marks is generic text marks (<code>\textMark</code>
        or <code>\textEndMark</code>), which are for everything that
        doesn't fit in the other categories.</p>

      <p>Nope, \repeat segno is from 2.23.6 (but the various
        repeat-related enhancements around it were gradually introduced
        across the 2.23 series).</p>
