Looks better than what is currently in master.

I was talking about a tab staff with larger staff-space, but with just
two staff-positions for each line.

Anyone writing #'line-positions = #'(-10 -2 6 14) would be planning to
put a lot of pitches in those eight staff-positions between the middle
lines, and will be surprised that LilyPond considers that not enough
room for repeat dots.

More likely, someone might have removed the center line from a 5-line
staff
  #'line-positions = #'(-4 -2 2 4)
for some unusual instrument, and will not like the change.

But, if anyone complains, we can insert 0 into 'folded-staff

seems crazy to me, but people do it,

Why do you want to distinguish these two cases?
