I'm not convinced that this is valid for voices within a single staff
which have a large vertical distance. If the distance exceeds a
certain threshold (say, more than a ninth), I would rather suggest
that the voices are treated independently, this is, that the
accidental clusters are computed separately, as originally stated by
David.
BTW, it's easy to construct a situation even with Mike's patch (thanks
for the quick fix!) where a chord contains enough accidentals so that
accidentals in the separate voice are still too far to the left.
