If you're seeing two notes in a bar followed by two notes
beyond the end of the staff, then the bug is basically that
the notation layout hasn't realised it needs another bar
because the final bar isn't complete (i.e. it's shorter
than the time signature indicates it should be).  This bug
is quite a recent addition resulting from my reworking of
NotationHLayout lately.

If you're wondering why there appears to be a complete bar
with only two notes in it (instead of, say, rests for the
first half of the bar) then it's because the notation staff
doesn't try to invent events.  There aren't any rests there,
ergo, they don't appear, and the bar is only two beats long.

It might be nice if the notation client was clever enough
to fill up the start of a staff (or indeed the end) with
fictitious rests up to the nearest bar boundary.  Not
entirely trivial to do though.
