Comment #25 on issue 3902 by tdanielsmusic: the position of the initial \voiceOne rest is suboptimal
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3902

Re #20, I agree with Keith here: I prefer the larger shifts so that the automated placement errs on the side of clarity. Furthermore the example from Gould which you quote is actually to illustrate the _minimum_ separation in contrast to one which is not acceptable. It is not stated as a recommendation. In fact she goes on to say, "Many editions place all minim and semibreve rests on only the outside stave lines, to avoid confusion."

So I don't think your patch is an improvement: it exchanges one set of ugly examples for another, but increases the likelihood of confusion. We should leave the default positioning as it is.
