New issue 3232 by address@hidden: LilyPond should use strict proportional  
spacing between note columns
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3232

Positioning subscripts/superscripts between notes requires attaching them  
to an intermediate time, like in the following example from the mailing  
list:

at =
#(define-music-function (parser location t e m)
  (ly:duration? ly:event? ly:music?)
  #{ << #m { \skip $t <>$e } >> #})

\new Voice \relative c'' {
  \at 4 \turn f4. g16-. a-.
}

A similar use case is attaching dynamics like crescendo and decrescendo to  
intermediate positions of a whole note.

Now absent of actual note columns, the only visual cue about the  
positioning of some construct is its horizontal position, so to let visual  
and audible positioning (in case the event is audible) correspond, it would  
be important to have such note-less events positioned in a strictly  
proportional manner (though a barline or key change or similar would  
displace an _upcoming_ notecolumn as the reference point for the next time  
with an event).
