Hey, devs!

While helping a newbie on -user, I noticed that ignoreMelismata doesn't *actually* ignore melismas fully: in the attached example, you'll note that the "three" syllable is *left-aligned*, as it would be if it were *observing* melismata. Does anyone know what traditional/desired practice is?
It may be visually preferable as currently implemented... I'm just  
trying to make sure that Lilypond is actually outputing the  
*intended* result!  ;)
Cheers,
Kieren.
