I take that back. This is the clear rule that [gerou96] gives,
but browsing through [wanske], i see extenders that extend for
the full length of the melissima. I can't seem to find and don't
rememer [wanske] to say something explicit about this...
Anyway, the current implementation of extenders in Lily allows
for either notation.
