New issue 3141 by address@hidden: accidental placment, clear ledgers
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3141

When ledgers are widened for suspended notes, the accidental should be  
moved left to clear.  In the case below, the flat on the E in the second  
chord should move. (The eighth notes show how LilyPond handles the case of  
clearing ledgers on the previous note.)

{ \clef bass <bes, gis aes>4 <ees' cis'' des''> a'8 beses a beses, }

One easy-to-find example is Debussy: Estampes: 2.Soirée dans Grenade,  
measures 18-19

In practice, very little space is left between the accidental and ledgers  
of its own chord.  It might make sense to shorten the ledgers, as LilyPond  
does when the note with an accidental is on a ledger line, but I have not  
yet found an engraved example where that is done.
