The default slur extends too low.

My intent with the override was merely to illustrate what the slur should (IMO) look like, not to propose that this specific height limit should replace the current default. That would just be silly :-P

So, why does the default slur cross the bottom staff line? Seems rather loopy-bloopy to me, and the case is not complicated: two consecutive notes, only one step apart. About as trivial as a slur gets.
