fingeringOrientations

[Peter Buhr]

G'day. Sorry, if I don't use the correct lilypond nomenclature.

Below are two bars of notes. The first bar is done with 2 voices inline and the
second bar is done with 2 voices out-of-line. In the first bar, the string
positions are not on the left of the notes, while they are in the second bar.
I would like to use the convenience of inline voices AND get the string numbers
in the correct position. Is there some mechanism to accomplish this?

(I have a sneaking suspicion someone is going to tell me this is a know bug and
point me to some URL confirming it. ;-)
