This bit I can help you with.  There are a couple of fixes I have made
in my local source which I haven't propogated to the bugs list yet
(because I have been doing some other hacking on it as well).  Try
this patch:

The above patch might fix this.  I don't know for sure, as I don't use
autobeaming.

I agree.  I'd like to trim the space on either side of grace contexts.

I suppose so.  Since I'm having a go at implementing this, could you
point me somewhere where I could see this notation?
