Comment #2 on issue 2376 by d...@gnu.org: Automatic footnotes on \null markups causes unexpected results
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2376
Too invasive for my taste. There is nothing wrong with having a single null stencil and/or empty stencil. What is wrong is when programs try to change them. If that is a serious concern for some reason, one can make them readonly or copy-on-write. We use techniques for that (mutable and immutable parts of properties, for example) elsewhere. It would even do to just set a flag on those that the writing routine balks at.
