Grace notes ... If this is the same problem, it has been recently discussed under title "Problems with grace notes, barlines, accidentals" and is documented as a bug. Effective workaround seems to be to place a grace 'skip' note in each staff/voice at the same place.
I have noticed the same types of concerns with midi2ly - I have no experience with abc2ly and I did not expect more out of a midi source. Hopefully the new NoteEdit release will help us out ... I have not read about or installed NoteEdit but I would not mind a abc2ly > noteedit > lilypond cycle, assuming NoteEdit can handle .ly input.
