Hello,
Recently I was talking with a person who also prepares music editions.
We were sitting there later in the night over a beer or two, and then
to illustrate a point I first had to fetch a choral piece on paper
set in lilypond and then also to resort to the laptop.
On paper: lyrics syllables spacing within one word was causing irritation.
>From my old 2.12.3 I still run I know syllables do not have a magnetic
snap property. If they are the minimum distance apart, a hyphen appears.
An unclosed smaller than that gap without hyphen was deemed irritating.
Me suggesting the magnetic snap, my counterpart suggesting
as an alternative being able to force hyphens even in tight spacing.
Reading the 2.18.2 documentation, no word there
neither of magnetic snapping nor of forced hyphenisation.
