I guess both your recent reports are actually the same problem; scripts do
collide with slurs. This bug is in cvs as slur-script.

The bug is marked as wontfix, see:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2004-09/msg00201.html

Any objections are welcome.

OK, I'll object.  :)

(assuming this is "wontfix" as in "delete the bug report and forget about the problem". If "wontfix" means "we'll have a look at it after the next stable
release", then that's fine)

If we're going to move scripts based on the slurs, then let's do it
right. If we were still using the old slur code -- that wasn't supposed to look at scripts -- then I wouldn't complain. But if we're going to partly move scripts to avoid collisions with slurs, then why not completely move them to
avoid collisions?

Wouldn't we just need to increase the default value of the padding on an object (either the slur or the script) to fix this? I don't know how LilyPond does its magic, though, so if it would be more complicated than that I could understand postponing the bug until after the next big release. But I think it _is_ a bug, and it would be nice if it was fixed at some point in the (distant?) future.
