Hi Kieren,

Thanks for the suggestion! I hadn't thought of that. Unfortunately, it  
looks like it would be a bit of a pain to tweak the second two arguments  
of the #'rotation setting: the relative coordinates of point around which  
to rotate. The appropriate point varies depending on whether the note has  
ledger lines, whether it's on or between ledger lines, and perhaps other  
factors.

So I'm doing this instead:

   \compressMusic #'(1 . 2) { e'''4~ \hideNotes e'''4 \unHideNotes } r4 r4
   % in place of:
   % e'''4\laissezVibrer r4 r4

There are other ways, of course, but that works well enough for now.
