Comment #5 on issue 2376 by mts...@gmail.com: Automatic footnotes on \null markups causes unexpected results
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2376
This code matches up with how stencils are represented internally and how the code uses then in general. One could, for example, use the same stencil for every single whole note. However, a function is called that returns copies of this stencil. In general, stencils are always created from scratch. I don't entirely follow what you're saying as it seems like it is getting into issues of program design that are out of my league, but given how LilyPond works and what people's expectations of things are, having "empty-stencil" be a function that returns an empty-stencil seems to make more sense than using the same stencil every time (for the same reason as the whole-note example given above).
