Comment #11 on issue 2085 by d...@gnu.org: Overriding stencil of StringNumber leads to "programming error" messages
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2085

There are a number of cases in the manuals where stencils are just cleared out with ##f. That's reasonably straightforward to remember, and we should make it work either consistently, or not at all. I don't think that we should make it generally equivalent to point-stencil (even though that may be one possibility) since a point stencil still is placed with appropriate padding with relation to other elements, and other elements are placed with appropriate padding with relation to the point stencil.

For that reason, it seems to me that a point stencil would still be able to significantly alter the skyline of the object it is in. And ##f should not do that.
