Disregard or correct me if I misunderstood, but classical editing
almost always demands a bit of knowledge--or at least research. How
many times does Wikipedia confirm an edit based on piece info there?
The user may need to know which is which, but Wikipedia provides that
info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Sonata_No._14_%28Beethoven%29.

(Interestingly enough, WP also formats it the way I did. :)

Cheers,
Andrew
