I agree with you that the notation output is not correct, especially in the sample you provide in comment 6. I'm going to do my best to explain why this issue should not be marked critical. I hope that others will correct my statements as necessary. You might not be aware that there are several open issues for Lilypond that relate to the typesetting of ties and slurs. For example see issue 298, referenced from issue 2368. http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=298 There are others. As I understand it the development team have identified that a better implementation of ties is possible but requires aesthetic design work to establish how this feature should work before technical implementation work can begin. The technical work may be substantial. Janek has a study of Lilypond's typesetting of ties and slurs which is work in progress and which may provide the aesthetic design we need. He mentioned it in response to your original bug report: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2012-02/msg01203.html So, in the meantime, I believe issues like 2368 and 298 are not being marked as critical because they are considered to be outside the feature set of Lilypond at this time.
