Comment #30 on issue 3026 by address@hidden: staff-padding should  
measure to the alignment-points
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3026

The property 'staff-padding' was in disagreement with its documentation in  
version 2.16, possibly since it was first implemented. (See commennts 0,  
16, 17)

The description of 'staff-padding' was and remains "Maintain this much  
space between reference points and the staff."

Some values for 'staff-padding' were chosen based on the documentation,  
such as the defaults for TrillSpanner that request one full staff-space  
between the staff and the centerline of the spanner.  Other values were  
adjusted based on behavior of the program.  Thus the single NOT_SMART rule  
to mention the one change in behavior between 2.0-ish and 2.18.

The only temporary situation is Trevor's independent fix to the 2.17.x  
documentation for aligning text on a baseline (which never really worked  
before).   This uses a clever trick with Y-extents, but that trick doesn't  
work well in 2.16 because the Y-extent clears protruding notes, not just  
the staff, in that version.  Less confusing to fix the intended behavior.
