When moving or copying in the notation editor, I put sometimes two notes 
exactly at the same place. In such case, only one note is visible, but this 
note is played louder than the others and some unexpected things happen when I
try to modify it.
It's not a really serious issue, nevertheless it would be fine to see such 
duplicate notes immediately.

The attached patch should do the trick in notation and matrix editors.

In matrix editors, overlapping notes are shown with a black colour.

In Notation editor, where almost all notes are black, I tried some other 
colours but can't find one I really like. Currently, the patch use a kind of 
magenta whose single quality is to be very different of other colours notes 
may have in notation editor. But there is no intuitive relation between this 
colour and a hide note.
I prefer a second way : the note keeps its colour, but its head is 
hilighted with an orange halo (surely orange is not the better colour, but 
it's the first I found which is neither too dark nor too light).
This  hilighting style is selectable from RG configuration dialog.

I wondered if other users have similar problems with overlapping notes.
I only can say that some hide notes may be found in RG exemples :
 - Children : track 1, bar 51
 - Ravel-pc-gmaj-adagio : track1, bar 8
 - Vivaldi-cs3mv2 : track1, bar 90
 - Let-all-mortal-flesh : all along the track 2

 (There is also an overlap in The-rose-garden, track2, bar 15. But this one, 
which is visible in notation editor but not in matrix, seems to me a bit 
strange...).
