Gould says that a bar containing a single note is placed left of
center. Full measure rests are centered. So lilypond is behaving
correctly from what I can tell, but I agree at times it'd be nice to
be able to adjust the off-centered-ness of the note. It's never
bothered me enough to try and fix it though. I'd definitely be
interested in being able to tweak it if it were available.
