Comment #4 on issue 1266 by [email protected]: Dots in chords can not be moved
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1266

Git says that "extremal_head_" first appeared in

  commit f2a58a07b17170c437268cc076c89ba0f33b13a2
  Date:   Tue Jan 6 14:50:35 2004 +0000
    * lily/dot-column.cc (dot_config_badness): new function:
    select the best scoring dot configuration: dots should go close to
    the note heads, but be shifted up or down according to conventions.

The patch looks reasonable. It does move the dot on a lone rest (image from dots.ly regression test). This problem is not so bad considering that Lilypond currently gets stem-down dotted chords wrong. (The tie and overrides in the example above are not required to see the bug.)

Maybe Justin can run the regression suite on his patch and tweak as required, and/or upload it to codereview.appspot.com, or else be patient enough for someone else to help with these things.
