New issue 1623 by colinpkc...@gmail.com: Override Stem #'length-fraction not applied to leger notes
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1623

Reported by Xavier Scheuer:

%% (Bug report)
%%
%% Shortening  Stem #'length-fraction  does not shorten stems for notes
%% far from the middle of the staff (notes with ledger lines)
%%
%% I know this behaviour is intentional in the case of "normal" stems
%% but I find it quite odd when we want stems to be shorter (since
%% overriding  Stem #'length-fraction  would change actually nothing
%% for notes with ledger lines).
%%
%% At least it would be great to have a propertie that could be
%% overridden to disable this behaviour (if this override exists please
%% forgive me, I did not find it)
%%

\version "2.13.60"

\score {
  \new Staff {
    \relative e {
      \override Stem #'length-fraction = #(magstep -4)
      e4 f g a
      b c d e
      f g a b
      c d e f
      g a b c
      d e f g
    }
  }
}

Colin: I'm uncertain of priority, as this doesn't seem to be a regression, but the behaviour is inconsistent, so I'll set it at High to start discussion.
