Ties in chords can sometimes be crowded
Ubuntu Studio 14.04, GIT commit: 0f756f2
Consider:
The two inner ties are crowded. That's because the code for avoiding staff lines has pushed the tie on the G down. There's probably a better way to handle this, but it might be good enough to just disable that particular adjustment for chords. Will investigate.

Also see how that looks on tab staff - ties cross? Might be possible to make that happen on standard too.
I address the crowding issue in https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/1108. The strategy is, if you have a chord with mutliple ties, go ahead and adjust notes even if they are outside the staff. Either method solves the crowding problem, but the way I did it allows chords that are totally inside the staff to still benefit from the staff line avoidance.
For the tabs staff issue I mentioned (as a note to myself), see #29236: Tie direction for chords on tab staves non-deterministic?.
Better fix: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/1112. Now I adjust ties *inward* where possible, which avoids crowding without requiring notes outside the staves to be adjusted. It also means closely-spaced chords with notes on spaces can have the ties start within same space as note, as per Gould p. 63.
