This might be a little tight, but it is perfect for one of my main uses of 
LilyPond --- typesetting marches for brass bands. In that context it's 
important to squeeze all the music into a single small (typically ~ 4"x6" 
landscape) page. A small figure for the padding makes this much easier and 
tidier.

I'm not so sure about less constrained contexts. How does this play with big 
and small values of between-system-padding and the various staff spacing 
variables? If it would be useful I'll play around with a few values of the 
spacing parameters to see how they go, once this is released.
