named instr and fractionals

Quick question, was support for instantiating names instruments with fractional numbers appended ever added? Have been out of the loop for a bit and thought I remembered this being mentioned as something that would be added
if not obviously not a big deal, as I could just use an enum in the frontend, just one less thing to manage though haha

The release notes for 6.16 mentions:

An instance of a named instrument can have a decimal fraction added to the name to allow for tied notes and other facilities that were only avaliable for numbered instruments.

I haven't used it so I'm not sure what the exact syntax is. If doing something programmatically in orc code, could always use nstrnum("nameOfInstr") + .01 or something like that to manually create a numbered fractional instrument.

I think it works correctly. ⁣​
