Among Gardner Read, Kurt Stone, and Ted Ross, none
specifically discuss this. But Lasse's case of putting
the tremolo beams within the staff is much easier to
defend than anything else.
I offer the following argument:
1) all stems in non-polyphonic situations should reach
or cross the middle line.
2) Tremolo beams on single stems are placed on the part
of the stem furthest from the notehead.
3) in ambiguous situations involving whole-notes,
notation elements are placed as if the whole-notes
had invisible stems.
It follows that LilyPond's default violates statement #2.
