Urs was asking about this, but the discussion has moved on to other
aspects of the particular problem he was trying to solve.
So I thought I would ask once again something which I have often felt I
wanted. That is, is there any way of specifying the minimum horizontal
distance that should be left between 2 consecutive notes?
It would be very useful sometimes to be able to tell Lilypond something
like: "Regardless of any other considerations, make sure that the
second note is at least 3 staff-spaces to the right of the first note."
Can this be done?
