It seems that restrainOpenString = #t causes LilyPond to check if you can
reach a finger to fret zero, within the maximumFretStretch = #4 (mentioned
only in the Internals Reference) while stopping the high D on fret 7.
Could this check ever be useful ?
I suspect that the change to give us restrainOpenString carefully preserved
an accidental (mis)-feature, so I re-opened its corresponding issue
