Simon,

again, thanks for your time.

This is intriguing. In tablature, I use \parenthesize to enclose grace notes in 
parentheses:

    <\parenthesize e\1>

which produces (0). But this doesn't leave any extra space for the parentheses, 
the way space is left for the brackets when using \harmonic. In other words, 
the fret number itself (the notehead) is printed on a white background, but the 
parentheses around it are printed on the tablature lines.

Please do -- this is tremendously helpful. Even if LilyPond's support for 
tablature is, according to the manual, "limited", I'm probably not the only 
guitar player who nevertheless thinks its output is far more beautiful than 
that of any other "tabs" program. Code like this extends that support!

Having finished a piece which sports regular + tablature notation of the 
melody, detailed fret diagrams, and the occasional dampened grace note (!), 
LilyPond's open format is probably what I'll continue to store my note work in.

Thanks for the help!
