The spacing appears pretty good to me.

Seems like an abstracted function with two parameters (magstep and
baselineskip) would be about right. Of course, if you can determine
baselineskip from magstep, you would only need one parameter.
You have not yet tested your baseline-skip parameter with a different
default-staff-size. I think that you will probably need to include the
default baseline-skip when determining the new baseline-skip. Font sizes
avoid this problem by using a scale parameter. I don't know that it's
possible to use a scale parameter for baseline-skip.

Is there any place else in the codebase where we include lilypond examples
in the doc strings? It seems like we ought to try for consistency; either
use lilypond examples in all of the doc strings (maybe at least for markup
functions) or in none of them. I don't know the right answer; I'm just
raising the question.
Looks like a great start.
Thanks,
Carl
