I like the overall simplicity of Pierre's proposal and its design including the
basic frontal asymmetry. However, in the proposed form it is visually
imbalanced left/right exactly because the outline is perfectly symmetrical. I
think you'll need to haul the lower part of the front leaf somewhat to the left
in order to achieve "optical correction".
This would violate the mathematical correctness for a better optical balance,
sacrificing actual rigidness to apparent balance in a manner LilyPond, like
good typesetters, does also while arranging notes. The imbalance is
particularly apparent in small print, like the proposed footline, where I
otherwise very much appreciate the straightforward clarity and iconic
unclutteredness of the proposal.
