Re: Bug regarding transposed key change

Lilypond aligns the key signature (only the flats or sharps) and puts
the key cancellation (which is a different object from the key
signature) before the key signature.

Perhaps you can see the alignment and why it can make sense in this example:

\score {
  <<
    \relative c' {
      \key e \minor
      c1
      \key bes \major
      c
    }
    \relative c' {
      \key g \minor
      c1
      \key g \major
      c
    }
  >>
}


Of course if one staff didn't have any key signature (like c major) and
the other had many flats/sharps, the gap due to this alignment can be
quite large. I cannot tell you whether this gap conforms to music
notation standards.

Cheers,
