I tried my simple approach to disabling collision detection, but I didn't
get desired (or deserved, as I smartly wrote in previous mail :P) effect -
spaces between notes with accidentals were still slightly wider than other,
and some other spacing rules got very wrong. Well, I expected it to work a
bit better.

Cheers,
Franek
