This would allow for playback of turns situated between two notes.

The user could then hide the post-grace note to look appropriate, all the while getting decent plack-back. As it is, MS won't honor such a turn.

Is the goal to have a turn before a grace note, or two have it between two ordinary notes? If the latter, wouldn't it be better to simply support that directly?

Yes, it would be better to support a turn directly between two notes and have it playback accordingly.

This is merely an attempt at a 'workaround' and acknowledging that the result doesn't work, although the workaround is slightly logical enough to 'hope' that it might work in the attempt, and it does provide a graphical fulcrum for the turn as another option rather than using offsetting.

Although, come to think of it, maybe there is a reason to support turns on grace notes? Not sure I've ever seen one in a score, but it might have its musical uses.
