I wouldn't use pitch by itself.  I think what would be better is a single 
beep for default, two beeps second with higher pitch than first for 
graphical, and three beeps in a rising pitch pattern for advanced.  That 
way if someone hasn't got good pitch ability they'll still be able to 
differentiate based on the number of tones. On Sat, 7 Jul 2012, Joey Hess
