        Summary: \with-dimensions doesn't work

Comment #15 on issue 3255 by address@hidden: \with-dimensions doesn't  
work
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3255

Any user writing the \with-dimensions command is rather explicitly  
requesting that the object be spaced with a simple box outline.

Maybe \pad-around could be generalized as suggested in the comment above.

Neither one works in version 2.17.14 (with positive, zero, or negative  
values) as seen with the example below (using a short but positive  
horizontal-extent so that the recent desired changes regarding zero-width  
objects to not confuse the issue.)

{ g1
%  -\tweak #'vertical-skylines
%  #(ly:make-unpure-pure-container
%      ly:grob::simple-vertical-skylines-from-extents
%      ly:grob::pure-simple-vertical-skylines-from-extents)
  -\markup { \with-dimensions #'(0 . 1) #'(-3 . 3) "tall" }
  -"bar"
  g1
%  -\tweak #'vertical-skylines
%  #(ly:make-unpure-pure-container
%      ly:grob::simple-vertical-skylines-from-extents
%      ly:grob::pure-simple-vertical-skylines-from-extents)
  -\markup { \pad-around #3 "tall" }
  -"bar" }

If the commented-out tweaks can be put into the function definitions, we  
would regain the old behavior.
