Thanks!  Yes I noticed that horizontal spacing is increased since the stencil is wider (but maybe not vertical spacing? at least not in my limited observation...).  So yes there should be a way to adjust for this so the spacing stays the same -- maybe as an option since one might want either behavior depending on the case.

Anyone have any thoughts on the best way to achieve such a spacing adjustment?

Could you use ly:make-stencil with zeroed extent for the offset stencils?
