Not that I would be one to sing a paean to the wonders of the Lilypond manual,
but when I had an issue with a dot clashing with another note, I was able to
figure out \dotsDown and \dotsNeutral. It may be because it's consistent with
other similar constructs, but it definitely didn't come from reading the source
code.
