Vertical position of cue instrument names

[Reinhold Kainhofer]

It seems that cue instrument names (set via Voice.instrumentCueName) are 
always placed bottom-aligned at the same vertical position, even if they 
collide with accents/notes and also if there would be enough space to place 
them lower (closer to the staff). Attached is an example displaying these 
problems:
-) measure 1: Collision of cue instrument name with note/accent
-) measure 2: the cue insteument name is way too high (does not move closer to 
the staff!)
-) measures 5/6: The cue intrument names are not baseline-aligned. I.e. the 
one instrument name with the "g" appears higher than the onewithtout curve 
below the baseline
-) measures 5/6: The instrument names are center-aligned, so here they case a 
very confusing spacing! Typically, the socres that I have seen use 
left-alignment of the cue instrument names...

Is there any way (special setting for the InstrumentSwitch object) that fixes 
this problem?

Cheers,
Reinhold
