The other staff lines might be forced to be farther apart due to
articulations, text, dynamics, etc.  Certainly the verticalExtent
property is supposed to affect all lines.  What happens if you set
verticalExtent to a really small number (ie 0), or a really big
number (say, 10) ?  Does the problem remain?

If the problem remains, could you send us a small example that 
demonstrates this?

Don't worry; policy on this list is to CC everybody, even when we know
that they're on the list.  :)
