Re: stem shortening

[David Stocker]

Yes, but is there a way to tweak this behavior to suit different situations?

something like \override Voice.shortStemLength = #3.5 (if it beamed 
notes would respect it) would make it simpler to avoid accidentals 
colliding with beams in upper and lower voices in polyphony. Currently, 
we're left with manually specifying beam positions. (maybe \override 
Voice.shortBeamHeight would be more specific and descriptive? Both 
possibilities would be superb!)

Just a thought.
