Minimum padding after barlines for notes with accidentals?

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

I'm finally doing some serious printing of the 70 pages of lilypond scores
I've been entering for the past month.  The output looks great and I can
address all the issues I have except one...

There is a problem with notes that both start a measure and have an
accidental.  What happens is that the accidental comes in contact with the
bar line.  This makes the accidental, (especially naturals), look like a
blob of ink splatter attached to the bar line.

Is there a way that I can specify a MINIMUM padding that should exist at the
start of each measure, whereby lilypond would only apply that padding if it
were not already there?  Also since I would hate to have to re-edit all 70
pages finding accidentals at the start of measures.  Is there a way that I
can apply this "minimum begin measure padding" globally in the score layout
block?

thanks for any help with this problem, (I can't be the first one to notice
it).

v2.9.17
