Room for improved rest collision handling

[Mats Bengtsson]

Hi,

Answering the questions by Claus, I condensed his code down to the following
example. Why doesn't LilyPond consider placing the rest in the middle of 
the
stave between the upper and lower notes? There's plenty of space for the 
rest,
and as can be seen in the third beat, this is the solution you get if 
you have two
simultaneous rests instead of a rest and a note. Also, why isn't the 
fourth beat
symmetric to the second, which I would have expected it to be?

I realize this is a low priority feature request, but still think it's 
good to have
it in the records.
