I believe the first chord \relative c'{ <f g a b>4.} is exactly analogous
to your case 2 -- four note cluster, space at the bottom.  And the bottom
dot is one staff space below the bottom note of the chord.

That certainly is strange.  I wonder why it drops to four dots instead of
5, given that there are 5 notes in the cluster.  And the G space dot would
only be two staff positions away from the E.

I'm looking into the code now.  I'll see if I can figure out what's going
on.
