New issue 798 by v.villenave: Enhancement: possible improvements to the  
stem-length algorithm
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=798

In a very documented discussion, Pekka Siponen has suggested that the way
stem length are computed could be improved:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2009-05/msg00015.html


For instance, in the attached example the last stem is obviously too short,
while the 3rd beat may not be optimal either:

\version "2.13.3"

\relative c'' { d8 c c4 d16 c b8 b4 }

Please read the whole discussion to find several well-documented opinions
on the subject.
