Description
Describe the bug
A courtesy accidental is created two bars distant from the causal accidental.
To Reproduce
Define three shortcuts:
CTL-A: RunPluginAddCourtesyAccidentals
OPT-A: RunPluginRemoveCourtesyAccidentals
CTL-OPT-A: RunPluginConfigCourtesyAccidentals
(1) Run CTL-OPT-A on the score as attached. (See screenshot.) Specify 'Put accidentals in parenthesis'.
See in bar 1 the E#. In bar 3 a courtesy Eb with parentheses has been inserted. (See screenshot.)
Expected behavior
In bar 3 there should be no courtesy Eb.
(2) Run CTL-OPT-A on the score as attached. Uncheck 'Put accidentals in parenthesis'.
A similar error occurs. But see Note.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the attached 9:8 bug.mscz.zip score and the RunPluginConfigCourtesyAccidentals shortcut, testing both parenthesized and unparenthesized settings. Trace the courtesy-accidental behavior for the E# in bar 1 and the unexpected Eb in bar 3; done means no courtesy Eb is inserted in bar 3 while the CTL-A case remains unaffected.
