Grace note playback
Hi, putting this in as a feature request rather than a bug report, but shouldn't grace notes (and possibly also mordents and glissandi) borrow time from the preceding note rather than playing back "on the beat"? Here's what I mean:
I guess the current behaviour is acceptable, but it would be nice if there was an option to turn on the correct behaviour.

See #13811: Select playback method of Grace Notes, Arpeggio & Glissando and Articulations & Ornaments, but also #111346: "Grace note after" doesn't sound during playback and #73311: Grace note ties ignored in playback

Thanks, so basically it's already an open feature request. Good to know, and by the way I'm generally loving MuseScore2! Keep up the good work.

"come up again"?
Excuse me if abuse of your availability is just to signal that the problem also occurs on the other side of the pond:

FWIW, though, it's not accurate to say that stealing time from the preceding note is more "correct". It's subjective, with the best practice depending on instrument, genre, and historical era. Playing back on the beat as MuseScore does is actually most consistent with the original intent of the ornament and its name.

Yes, that's correct. Until way into the 19th century the "correct" (normal/expected) performance would be on the beat. As always: make it configurable ;-)
