Ambitus: horizontal spacing

[Malte Meyn]

Hi list,

I think that the horizontal spacing of Ambitus isn’t optimal: IMO it has 
too much space on the left side (or too little on the right side). I’d 
suggest to change the left-hand space from 2.0 to 0.8 or maybe 1.0:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.82"

\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff { c' c'' }
\new Staff { c' c'' }
>>

\layout {
  \context {
    \Staff
    \consists Ambitus_engraver
  }
  \context {
    \Score
    \override LeftEdge.space-alist = #'((ambitus extra-space . 0.8))
  }
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Opinions? Gould remains silent about that.

Cheers,
Malte
