Hm, perhaps it will be wise to mention that i'm currently researching
ties in general. I already have about 150 examples of
current-vs-desired output pairs. There are a lot of cases which Lily
doesn't handle well, so when i finish my report i hope that we will
launch a big Tie Project to get rid of all these deficiencies.
I attach a small excerpt of my work. Some examples are nitpicky, but
6th and 8th one look really bad in print and should definately be
fixed.

cheers,
Janek
