Thanks, that’s good.

There are two issues, though:
– the \tweak version spills over to the next clef and
– the vertical position of the beam changes:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.31"
{
  a'8
  \once\override Staff.Clef.space-alist.next-note = #'(extra-space . 0)
  \once\override Staff.Clef.X-extent = #'(0 . .8)
  \clef bass a, b, c
  \clef treble a'8
  \tweak Clef.space-alist.next-note #'(extra-space . 0)
  \tweak Clef.X-extent #'(0 . 0)
  \clef bass a, b, c

  \clef treble a'4
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%
(output attached)

I’ll go for the bug-list with these.

Yours, Simon
