I'd forgotten that news item, but the extra space seems to be
too large.  I've checked the scores of three publishers and all
of them position a single note in a bar close to the left bar
line.  One of the LilyPond examples I showed positioned the
note almost in the centre of the measure - surely that cannot
be correct.

Furthermore, the positioning in the first measure of every line is
different to the rest of the measures on the line.  The first bar is
correct, I believe, but surely the positioning should be consistent.
