It is supposed to look like this?

I think there should be a gap in the ledger lines between the 8th and the quarters, just like there is between the quarters and between the 8ths

Agreed, ledger lines should not normally be allowed to touch by default. Right now, we have a "minimum note distance" style parameter you could up to fix this, but that could result in more space than necessary between notes not on ledger lines.

I guess the problem here is that the algorithm only checks notes in the same voice. The G & F touch because they are in different voices.

Getting this perfect in all cases might be more expensive (in layout time) than it's worth, but I am currently testing is a fix for the easy cases (including this one).
