Dear all, in 2016 Carl Sorensen was working on improving the dot positioning algorithm (see the thread starting at [1]), but his changes were not added to LilyPond (I believe he never submitted them, since I couldn't find an issue in the tracker or a commit in the repository). I liked the results of his improvements very much [2], although the algorithm was still not perfect (see thread starting at [3]).
Carl: is there any chance you can resurrect your patch? Anyone with access to lilyissues: should the problems Carl was trying to solve be added to the tracker? Best wishes.
