???  I've just suggested the `--default-left-padding' option to
exactly avoid that!  Ideally, we would simply change the default value
of lilypond-book's `--left-padding' option to 0mm, but this breaks
backwards compatibility.  Thus my suggestion to have a means to
control the default value instead.
