Comment #15 on issue 3902 by [email protected]: the position of the initial
\voiceOne rest is suboptimal
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3902
Frankly, I find _many_ of the regtests worse. The simple construct
<< r16 \\ r8 >>
looks awful (cf make-relative.ly for an example). << r\longa. \\ r\longa.
is absolutely terrible: rest-dot-position.ly is probable the regtest
giving the "executive's summary". Stuff like midi-notes.ly gets
incomprehensible: here obviously the look could be improved by smarter
voice tracking, but as long as we don't have that, wider defaults like the
existing one are less likely to cause inversion confusion.
quote-cyclic.ly looks actually like something's wrong anyway: the main
voice more likely than not should have \oneVoice rest positioning. Not
relevant to this issue until it is fixed.
quote-cue-during.ly is too tight.
dot-column-vertical-positioning.ly looks like it demonstrates an
independent error.
The only actually convincing improvement to me is
lyric-combine-switch-voice.ly and again, it is incidental: we'd need voice
tracking to get such improvements consistently.
In the current form and situation, I find that the patch makes more things
go worse than it causes things to go better. Most improvements are
marginal, while several setbacks are rather strong.
