Seems we ought to make the FiguredBass respect outside-staff-priority, but I
don't know how to go about doing that.

I tried setting the following, to no avail:

    \override Staff.BassFigure #'outside-staff-priority = #2000
    \override Staff.BassFigureAlignment #'outside-staff-priority = #2000
    \override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'outside-staff-priority
= #2000



HTH,
