Okay so I complied with "Ted Ross, pp.143-147.  Anyone interested in fixing  
this should (without question) consult those pages!"

He says to leave 2.5 spaces from key signature to note head, or if there  
are accidentals, 2 spaces from key signature to the left-most accidental  
(actually to the first vertical line in the accidental).  Similar concept  
for time-signatures.  LilyPond uses this two-condition concept, so we need  
only tweak parameters:
KeySignature extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 1.0)
KeyCancellation extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 1.0)
TimeSignature extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 0.8)

Make default ?
