markup note - scaling stemlenght affects horizontal position

[Villum Sejersen]

lilypond 2.9.28 - not tested in other versions

Using \markup \note I came up with a small surprise:

The result of (basically)

        g2 a4
        ^\markup { 2-3: { \note #"2" #1.0 } }
        _\markup { 2-3: { \note #"2" #0.5 } }
        a4 b1

        g2 a4
        ^\markup { 2-3: { \note #"2" #-0.75 } }
        _\markup { 2-3: { \note #"2" #0.25 } }
        a4 b1

as shown in the attached markup-note-test.png

seems to indicate that only stemlenght #1.0 places the the stem in the 
intended horizontal position in regard to the notehead.

Scaling the lenght of stem affects the horizontal offset.
