Ahhh ...

So that means I need to check the documentation and send a bug-fix to
Graham.

In case you hadn't noticed, the reason I used the (nonexistent)
\outputProperty is because it was documented in the manual ...

Cheers,
Wol

But this does not even exist!
And you can use \overrideProperty only where a music expression
is allowed, that is not inside a \layout or \paper block, but where you
enter your notes.

When the next-padding property has not been set on an individual system
by \overrideProperty, then the value displayed by annotate-spacing is
the default value, ie. the value of between-system-padding.
