New issue 3026 by [email protected]: staff-padding should measure to the alignment-points
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3026

The description at
  LearningManual 4.5.2: staff-padding property
talks about aligning to a baseline, which would implies that we want the baselines of the objects on a common line.

The Internals documentation agrees that that was the plan:
  staff-padding (dimension, in staff space)
Maintain this much space between reference points and the staff. Its effect is to align objects of differing sizes (like the dynamics p and f) on their baselines.

However, the code (Side_position_interface::aligned_side) applies staff-padding to the closest point of the object.
