hairpin aesthetics

[Mike Solomon]

Hey all,

When typesetting:

<snip>
\version "2.19.15"


\relative c'' {
  \time 2/4
  cis8\> ( bisis ) fis'\< ( e ) |
  d2\! |
}
</snip>

the second hairpin seems really short compared to the first. My guessing is 
that whatever gap is put between the hairpins is tacked onto the start of the 
second instead of evenly distributed between the two.

Does anyone have examples from the literature with cases like this?  Is the 
second hairpin really shifted that far over?

Cheers,
MS
