I've been away playing a musical so haven't been able to chime in lately.

I just wanted to add a note about figured bass.  Figured bass only indicates the notes to be used above a bass.  It does so by indicating the intervals to be used above the bass (all within a 9th).  It does not indicate the voicing or doublings involved.  That was the reason for such books on thorough bass / figured bass by the likes of C. P. E. Bach (The True Art of Keyboard Playing -- I'll not give the German name.  It takes about a half page.)

Wow, another insightful idea..
Can't wait for you to come back.

I hope all goes well in the musical.
