Hello,

Sometimes stems push things that are outside-staff further outside, even
with things like TabStaff, which removes the Stem stencil. Take this, for
example:

\version "2.23.0"

\new TabStaff \with {
  \revert Stem.stencil
  \revert TextScript.stencil

  \consists "Timing_translator"
% \override Beam.quantized-positions = ##f
}{
    \time 2/4
    << { a,8^A a'^B } \\ { c''4 r4 } >>
}

The B is significantly higher than the A, because the calculated stem
sticks outside the staff. This happens even when the stem stencil isn't
reverted, but I reverted it to show what I think is going on. It happens
without the Timing_translator as well, though it's less pronounced.

I would like to completely shut off the internal stem calculation in order
to get the A and the B on the same level, but I can't figure out how. I was
able to shut off the calculation for stem lengths by setting
Beam.quantized-positions to false, but this results in lilypond errors.

Thanks for the help!
Brian Bartling
