Title Inserting a 'Breath' results in strange results (Nightly 83d7d0c) Bad layout on inserting a 'Breath' via drag & drop

Confirmed. Double-click works fine, but drag & drop does not.

1) My First Score
2) Enter four quarter notes into measure `1
3) Drag breath to third note

Result: way too much space.

It's actually off by different amounts depending on which note you drag to. Dragging to the last note of the measure puts the breath mark itself way to the right, but doesn't actually create much extra space 9so the breath mark appears over measure 3).

Yet double-click works fine in all cases.

Could well be. I looked at this far enough to see the issue is that the breath mark is having its position set relative to the beginning of the measure rather than the segment is being added to. So it's basically twice as far from the baseline as it should be. Not sure when this is going wrong though.
