New issue 1219 by brownian.box: Broken tie may become a too small dot
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1219

Yes! --- this may be duplicate of issue 840.

Here is no time signature, however, and no accidentals in chords.

I've attached a sample source file to reproduce --- sorry, it is really  
more eloquent than a minimal example.

And an image --- a crop of a real score.

Please take a look --- there should be a tie in basso.

Set to "medium", but actually i would rather set priority to high because  
this defect is TOO HARD to catch --- one could need to inspect score as if  
it was "clicked" (or even typed) with Finale, sorry.

Again, please do not mind these *bytes of samples --- i promise i will  
attach only tiny examples!-)

I just wanted to show that this defect is _really_ embarrassing... Yes,  
there _is_ a workaround (and for issue 840? --- not tested), but the main  
problem is to catch the case...
