Indeed. But it shouldn't.

Br. Samuel: there's quite a confusion in the code between eolshifts and
bolshifts. These are two different things: eolshift is always active,
while bolshift can be enabled or disabled, but it should be by
\gresetbolshifts instead of \greeteolshifts, I think just renaming this
macro (and a few minor things like \ifgre@eolshiftsenabled) should be
enough. Also, the doc about the macro contains an error ("the a"), and
is extremely blur. The description of what it does is here:

https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/blob/develop/tex/gregoriotex-syllable.tex#L528

Coming back to the original problem, this might be better to get the old
behaviour back when this feature is turned off. This might be possible
by changing the conditional line 541 of gregorio-syllable (in fact I
don't really understand this conditional...). Reading a little more, why
is lie 846 of gregorio-syllable commented? I don't see any logic here...

BTW, don't you like this feature? I think it makes the scores nicer...
or do you think it could be improved?

The current way of inputting <eu> is not optimal indeed, but it has its
own logic to get used to...
