Comment #15 on issue 2468 by address@hidden: augmentation dot of a  
moved rest is placed on a line

Comment 8 contained the best thoughts I had at the time.

It turns out that the dots *are* moving along with their parent Rests.
The problem is that the dot-positioning is being done while the rests are  
at tentative positions.  When the rest is on a beam, these tentative  
positions are the mean of the neighboring note-positions, so the tentative  
rest position is not aligned to the staff lines.  Dot-positioning puts the  
dots between staff lines, but then they are in the wrong place when the  
rest moves to its final home.

This was the commit that changed the tentative positions of rests was

the same one that helped LilyPond allow space for the rest in the case  
mentioned above: {c'16[ r16. cis']}
