PianoStaff spacing in 2.11

Hi everybody,

A short while back, I was under the misapprehension that there was something wrong with the spacing in piano staves when using version 2.11. Having erroneously submitted a bug report to this effect, I found out that thanks to the new spacing engine, the fixed distance workaround present in 2.10 was no longer necessary (hence why the "PianoStaff centred dynamics" template no longer works properly).

I have been typesetting a few piano pieces, and have found that the spacing can vary wildly, especially when adding dynamics. This is, in my opinion, a rather unfortunate situation, and one not in keeping with traditional engraving rules for piano music.

My question is this: Is it possible to force fixed distance between the staves in a PianoStaff under version 2.11? I've tried various overrides, but all they tend to do is influence the minimum spacing and amount of system stretching.

Thanks,
Neil
