That's great, thank you! I didn't even know you could modify those
properties in the lilypond code, I thought you had to edit the sources and
recompile lilypond.

Your suggested values are a significant improvement, indeed, although I
do not use flat flags. 

I tried these values for straight-modern, and I find the result
satisfactory:

#(define-public (modern-straight-flag grob)
  ((straight-flag 0.52 0.88 -18 1.1 22 1.2) grob))


One problem remains, though: the first flag is not aligned with the end of
the stem (see the attached ly files and their output).


Best,
