Hi, I'm trying to typeset a song with Chinese lyrics in Lilypond 2.15.40-1 and I've ran into an issue with the horizontal alignment of Chinese punctuation. While Chinese stops (U+3002 "。") and full-width commas (U+FF0C "，") are correctly offset from the centred syllables, the Chinese "dunhao" is not. Dunhao is a special kind of comma that is used to separate items in a list in Chinese; it is U+3001 "、" and it would be nice if it could exhibit the same behaviour as other commas. I've "kludged" it for now by adding \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT at the start of each lyricsto block, but that's not ideal as it then needs further "kludges" for left-hanging punctuation (opening quotations etc); is there a way to fix it properly? Thanks.
