  1. Add a note several ledger lines below the staff
  2. Drag a grace note or accaciatura to the normal note

Expected behavior: Stem should be standard grace-note stem length (2.5 spaces)

Actual behavior: Stem length extends to the center staff line as if it was a normal note

(Tested using r. 2449 nightly, Windows XP)

This is fixed in recent trunk versions.
I have examples of grace notes which are an octave below the main note with long stems nearly reaching the center staff line. (Moussorgsky, Gnomus, Edition Peters). Maybe there are exceptions or special cases of the above rule.
