Stemside, slurred staccati

[Trevor Bača]

What's a nice way to clean this bit up?

I'd like the slur to be above *all* four staccati, especially the
first and last ones, preferrably aligning neatly to the outer
staccati.

Any fiddling suggestions?

%%%%% BEGIN STEMSIDE SLURRED STACCATI SNIPPET %%%

\version "2.7.8"

\score {
   \context Staff = "1" {
      g'8[^(^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato)]
   }
}

%%%%%%% END SNIPPET %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Also ...

Is there a reason that the first of the four staccati in the second
snippet doesn't seem to obey #'slur-padding? Bug, possibly?

%%%%%%% BEGIN SLUR-PADDING SNIPPET %%%%%%%

\score {
   \context Staff = "1" {
      \override Script #'avoid-slur = #'outside
      \override Script #'slur-padding = #2
      g'8[^(^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato
      g'8^\staccato)]
   }
}

%%%%% END SECOND SNIPPET %%%%%%%%%%%%
