Downbow symbol below slur / slur touches staccato dot

[Alex Klein]

Hi guys,
just compiled and tested the new 2.3.9 and I have to say it looks great 
so far. As I write mostly string music at the moment (and thus often use 
slurs to indicate bowing), I have to nag a bit on the slurs. Most of the 
look great, but there are still some cases where the slur hits the 
staccato dots (most of the time I've got two eights that are staccato 
with a slur to indicate that they have the same bowing direction).

An even more severe problem is the following. When using the downbow 
symbol on a note with a slur (in my case a note that is stemmed down), 
the slur starts ABOVE the downbow symbol. Bowing symbols as well as 
fingering instructions are musical comments and should never be between 
the notes and the slur.
With every release the output looks better and better, so keep up the 
good work. But I would recommend to fix the slur-problems above before 
announcing version 3.0 as this is really annoying when doing string works.
Cheers

Alex
