This is probably another instance of #34. Since it crops up in so
many places, we stopped accepting bug reports about grace notes
over two years ago. :(

No; keep grace notes in the LM. If/when the bug ever gets fixed,
we don't want to go hunting through the LM for old warnings. All
bug-related info should be kept in the NR under @knownissues.
