"before-title-spacing" does *not* apply at the top of the
first page, even when print-first-page-number is #t (to
force a header).

AFAICT, yes.

AFAICT, no.

I believe that the meaning is correct, so your vote is to
keep "score-score-spacing"; that's fine by me.

"system-markup-spacing" (a.k.a "before-title-spacing") does
not apply to a system and markup in the same score, so your
vote is for "score-markup-spacing"; that's fine by me.
However, by extension of this logic, and to be consistent,
we should then change "after-title-spacing" to
"markup-score-spacing", as opposed to
"markup-system-spacing".
This leaves:
CURRENT NAME PROPOSED NAME
------------ -------------
top-system top-system (no change)
top-title top-markup
between-title markup-markup
after-title markup-score
between-system system-system
before-title score-markup
bottom-system system-bottom
between-scores-system score-score
I'm fine with these changes, but now I'm confused by
something else. After playing around with a bunch of
settings, it seems that headers and footers are neither
markups nor scores, yet they influence spacing, and there
are no variables like "after-header-spacing" or
"before-footer-spacing". What variable can I use to set the
'padding between the last system and the footer? Or do I
just use bottom-system-spacing, and then the program
automatically moves the last system up to prevent colliding
with the footer?
By the way, the annotate-spacing output is not very helpful
here. No, that's too kind; annotate-spacing is so unhelpful
it's essentially broken. When I have more time, maybe I'll
submit a bug report.
