ctually, if you mark the chord as small, it *is* centered. It's only because you marked the *note* as as small that it isn't. This is normal / correct.

Shouldn't the title be "Centre noteheads of small stemless note values in chord"? As non-small, stemless notes are centred, aren't they?

But that's nonsensical. By definition, a single chord has all of it's note aligned to the "stem". If you want any other alignment whatsoever, you use two chords in two voices. That's what you should have done here. Expecting to get that alignment for a single chord is just not sound.
