Just curious, why wouldn't this be a bug?  I've never seen stems with the
same notehead twice before :)  Since most rhythm comping arrangements would
just provide the chord names and the rhythm, and if you already have your
chords in a variable to generate the names just reuse them on rhythmic staff
to show the rhythm...  

Thanks, Rick
