Which version of Sibelius? I believe it was Sibelius 7
that introduced the "magnetic layout" feature which moves things around as you
place them. Of course, that's still nothing like Lilypond.

What about the LilyPond and Finale renderings on that page:

In this case the printed score from which
I typeset the example with
LilyPond and someone else with Finale
2008.
Ah, I see, you are able to talk about "Enter the
plain music, correctly
assign voices and don't apply any manual
corrections" in the context of
Finale - with many such programs you
cannot certain markings or text
without manually positioning it, it
just floats at the end of the mouse
pointer until you
click.
Without wishing to bias any
result, I have to say that Sibelius is _appalling_ at placing lyrics by
default.
