Actually I do not know. I'm not used to piano scores. I just noticed this "unaesthetism" while helping someone on lilypond-user and in noticing that the output looked better (IMHO) with 2.12 than with 2.14. Then I spoke to mike who told me to report it. You (Keith, Mike, etc.) are more "expert" than me!
