Of course not. You're just accessing the accidental indirectly. Perhaps we should amend the documentation for \tweak: it can't be used to modify stems, beams or accidentals *directly*. > > 2) This seems so kludgy.

'before-line-breaking 'after-line-breaking For accidentals, you'll have to use 'before-line-breaking, so it catches them before space has been reserved.
