Comment #6 on issue 3255 by address@hidden: \with-dimensions doesn't work  
with zero extension
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3255

This is actually part of a bigger issue...if someone does:

\override Hairpin #'Y-extent = #'(-0.1 . 0.1)

this will have no effect on outside staff or side-position spacing because  
hairpin's vertical skylines are taken from their stencils.  Two possible  
solutions come to mind:

1) Document that outside-staff spacing and side position spacing, for  
certain grobs, is not based on extents but rather stencils.
2) Never make stencil-based skyline spacing a default.  This would bring  
back all of the bad spacing problems from 2.16, but would make the good  
spacing accessible via an override.

I'm OK with either of those options, although I'd prefer the 1st.
