I'm embarrassed that I don't exactly know when and where, but there actually _were_ times when notes were placed in the middle of the time they are supposed to fill.2. Whole notes and rests are kind of flushed to the left. It's been many years since I did music but if I am not mistaken it was customary to have them centered... is there a way to center them?
You can even find it in _handwritten_ 19th century scores.For example look at the last measure in this Schubert manuscript: http://www.schubert-online.at/activpage/manuskripte.php?werke_id=253&werkteile_id=&image=MH_00122_D648_052.jpg&groesse=100&aktion=einzelbild&bild_id=51
[Another practice was to place the prolongation dots not directly after the note but at the horizontal position where the next note normally would be placed (which is quite irritating to read)]
But you wouldn't have this kind of notation in printed scores, and surely not in anything from the 20th century.
