All of the changes are intentional.  The reason that the slur is closer to  
the bow mark is because the bow mark used to be translated based on a slur  
coordinate that was higher than it needed to be.  Now, the bow mark avoids  
the slur by 0.2 (which is the blanket slur-padding that I've added to all  
scripts - this blanket padding seems appropriate given the snug fit that  
this patch creates between slurs and scripts).

Long story short: the old way this was done was by taking a measurement of  
the slur/script collision at the beginning, middle, and end of the script  
along the X-axis and shifting based on the biggest offender.  With this  
patch, the code finds slur/script collisions anywhere along the script (not  
just beginning/middle/end) and shifts the script just above the  
highest/lowest point of collision (depending on script direction) +  
slur-padding (0.2, as hardcoded in this patch).
