Hi,
Start a new score.  Enter a quarter rest, followed by, say, 7 more quarters,
giving a total of 2 bars.  Enter a chord symbol on the first beat of the first
bar, that quarter rest, and a chord symbol on the first beat of bar 2.  Check
the lilypond output: should look good.  Now, put an eighth note grace between
the 2nd and 3rd quarters of bar 1.  Check the lilypond now.  The chord symbols
have been displaced to the right by about an eighth note.  The problem is the
lilypond code outputted is like this:

MvmntIVoiceIChords = \new ChordNames \chordmode {
%chord symbols follow
 f4 s4\grace {} s8 s4
 s4 d4:7 s4 s4
 s4
 s1 
}

and that pointless \grace {} must be messing things up.  I've never heard of a
grace note chord symbol, so probably all grace notes should be cut out of the
chord names.  Of course, it'd be nicest if the rhythms were cleaned up
automatically changing s8 s4 s8 to just s2, but that would require more work.
