What about the other issues? I don't know enough about typesetting to be sure about how it should be done. Should dots be stacked when they collide, as they are in bars 3 & 4? And should really all dots be placed to the right of the rightmost note of the same beat, if there is space to the left as well? Anyway I added this example to bug CVS (as dots-polyphony) along with typographic questions. The bug's status might be altered when the questions are answered.
