Yes, that's true.  The area within which a click is taken as
having intended to land on the chord is indeed the least enclosing
rectangle for the chord's heads, stem, flags, dots, marks, and
even beams or ties up to the start of the following chord.

Unfortunately the technical reason for this is a fairly fundamental
one -- there is a single rectangular object on the canvas that
contains the rendering of all the above parts of the chord, and at
a very basic level your click is determined to have collided with
that object: we don't even decide what to do with your click until
after the toolkit has already made that decision.

I think.
