This would return false, since the location to save to is unknown.
However, SaveNew() would return false as well in this case.

Finale has a specific plug-in API for inserting measures, I believe 
that's used for appending measures as well. (The API for deleting 
measures is available to JW Lua already, as a static method in FCMeasures.)

I'll try to add that to the next beta.

Even if the creation was a success, this would always return the same as 
the last LoadAll() call. The collection isn't "live".
