This would be *possible* to implement some day, but would require more a sophisticated layout engine than what we have - something capable of considering more context. So if the layout engine is ever totally re-worked to allow things like "magnetic layout", we could definitely consider this. Meanwhile, for these relatively uncommon cases, manually flipping is easy and safe.

I would probably recommend producing new scores based on the images from the book.

The way I handled it could introduce unintended influence on the beaming and tie or stem direction.
