Ah yes.  The old

    Let rhythmic-engraver make its articulation-or-event decision based on 
current listeners
    
    This removes the dependency of the rhythmic engraver on a static list
    of unlistened event classes and thus is part of work on issue 2449.
    
    As one effect, string numbers on isolated notes in Voice contexts are
    now typeset by default since the string numbers have no listener in
    Voice contexts even though they would have one in TabVoice.


Depending on the correctness of the "static list", even the earlier
following commit might have done the job:

    Don't wrap EventChord around rhythmic events & documentation fixes

(good old issue 2240).

Looks like the documentation _still_ hasn't caught up with it everywhere.
