Comment #23 on issue 984 by [email protected]: Noteheads don't merge when one of the voices contains a second
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=984

I don't see the need for the red tape. It's the next thing I need to finish (currently I am on the Linux fair in Chemnitz and mostly involved with talking to people and preparing my talk tomorrow), and I have started coding it. It is annoyingly extensive work since the existing code is based on a lot of assumptions (which _are_ valid in the majority of cases, or we would have seen more problems by now), but even though they are mostly valid, they don't make sense. If the assumption is that you have just the same duration and notehead style on one stem, intermingling looking at just one notehead, looking at the stem, looking at the notehead currently being spaced without rhyme or reason might seem all ok.

But it takes time to analyze what really makes sense when you stop assuming that everything will be the same anyway. Even though it will be in most cases.

I am afraid that I've drunk to much to make sense right now.
