New issue 1313 by v.villenave: Polyphonic rests should be centered with  
simultaneous noteheads
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1313

This was reported (and fairly documented) by Francisco a while back:
http://old.nabble.com/Room-to-improvement-for-polyphonic-rests-ts27636159.html

Currently when you have something like

<< { c''4 r } \\ { r c'' } >>

you can see that the rests are not centered with the notehead in the other  
voice.

Francisco has provided us with some scans; as you can see, Peters does  
center rests in such situations.
