When 2 consecutive beamed notes are played together in cross-staff the resulting overlines are shifted on the left.

Confirmed. Steps to reproduce:

1) new piano score
2) top staff: add eighth notes middle C+D on beat 1, E on the "and" of 1 so they are beamed
3) select C
4) shift+ctrl+down

Result: the notes & stem for the C+D chord are shifted too far to the right. The ledger lines themselves are in the right place, as you can see if you break the beam.

See https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/2170.

This fixes the portion of this that is truly specific to cross-staff beaming. However, there is still a spacing issue that happens with user-edited beams - double click & drag - that are moved to opposite side of note from the default. This issue is not unique to cross-staff beaming - see #73731: Bad note spacing with user modified beam on chord with seconds. I filed that separately because the cause is deeper.
