Thanks! That is quite a helpful investigation...

Surprisingly, Finale makes quite a good showing in this case -- 
certainly (to my eye) the least number of glaring problems of the 
non-Lilypond bunch. The two cases where it clearly trounces Lilypond 
(in this example) is the spacing between bars and music which begins 
with an accidental (q.v., m 2, 3, 6), and the tie-note padding (q.v., m 
1, 3, 5, 7, etc.).

For most things, however, Lilypond proved its superiority (to my eye) 
once again!

Cheers,
Kieren.
