2.  In 2.2.6, partial measures and gracenotes are covered.  In the previous

A partial measure starting with a gracenote turns off autobeaming, even 

if it's explicitly turned on:

\relative c' {

\key c \minor

\partial 8

\grace ais8

b8

\autoBeamOn

c d ees f g aes bes c

}

I saw one archived message about this, but no replies, and I couldn't 

find it listed as a bug on the google code page.  Should this be added 

to the list of bugs, or am I overlooking something?

Eeeee, that's rather annoying. It would probably be added to list of problems with grace notes, but to workaround it, put the grace note before the partial (and you don't need to turn auto-beaming on, since it's on by default).
