(I accidentally sent the email too early.) I wanted to add that unless/until somebody implements complex bounding boxes (OpenType Math font for whatever font you are using), you cannot avoid the problem. TeX has no idea how big Y is, it only knows its rectangular bounding box. Cases like this one have to be manually tuned.
