I would say that no extra space should be added - see ex0.png. I've also
included a case where the engraver has actually moved a rest to the left
to fit a clef change - ex1.png - perhaps in order to keep the quavers
looking even. Both these are from the Henle edition of the Beethoven
Sonatas for Piano and Cello.
