yes, this was a comment made with tongue firmly in cheek. :) the original version delivered by the composer did not have cross-staff beams and rests under the tuplet beams in both hands. i feel that my notation is less complex for the player, but not being a pianist, i'm not sure if it would be considered the "correct" way to do it. if not, i'm open to suggestions on how better to notate this section. i haven't consulted gould on the matter yet, but will do so this evening.
all that aside -- the tuplet brackets do not work very well by default for this case, so my original question still remains: bug or extreme border case?
