Re: Shortening eighth note beamed stems and other typesetting questions

If you want to mimic the old edition, you could do:

      \once \override NoteColumn.horizontal-shift = 0
      \once \override Beam.positions = #'(2 . 1)

just before the c-flat a-flat.

I think I like this solution; but maybe one should shorten the stems for 
e-flat d-flat before also, to make the look more similar.

Also thanks for implicitly showing make-voice-props-set - I had never 
researched the internals of \voiceTwo etc.
