Re: shortened flags affair, part 5 - length of notes extending far from staff

[Janek Warchoł]

Hmm, i raised this issue because it looked to me as if it was
overlooked by developers, but engraving books seem to be clear here
and LilyPond is in fact doing the right job. While personally i
dislike current looks of the output, i won't argue with authorities
here. Let's leave it as it is now.

Maybe it's done in order to visually separate beams with staff symbol.
128th beam consists of five lines, so it could blend with staff
undesireably.
