Thanks for your reply Nick. 
The second solution was where I got to before posting,
and though the third is tempting because simple, 
it goes against my strict self-enforced stem direction policy.

I think the e-flat shifting to the right is what _should_ happen 
since horizontal spacing is always less strict than, say, stem legnths?

So I'd be interested to know how to do a horizontal shift, 
or isn't that a trivial matter?

Regards

Tom
