The examples in the documentation portray the placing of finger numbers after notes as respectable. If you look at this file, which has left hand fingering well done, you will see that it is not. I don't think you can find a single instance of a finger number directly after a note

the first and the second group of four notes, as usual. However, using the automatic beam subdivision does not work, because it subdivides also tuplets (e.g., 6- tuplets). Moreover, beam subdivision in drum scores does not typeset the one-line beam in the example above. 2) Is fingering in tablatures
