Gaps/margins around texts with borders

Your idea

For text frames with a border around the text, add a customisable gap distance between the border and the other elements that would be used during automatic layout to avoid the text frame border to touch elements surrounding them.

Similar to the CSS box model.

Problem to be solved

MU4 automatic layout capabilities have been highly improved. Nevertheless, when a text frame has a border, it is laid out often too close from other elements leading really dense score :

Which can even lead to confusion.

The workaround is to manually lay out those elements, which is not recommended, because it breaks partially the MU4 automatic layout and must be done and re-done for every part of the score.

Adding gaps will give more air the score while preserving automatic layout capabilities

Additional context

See discussion Copy Part Layout

Start by tracing MuseScore's automatic layout handling for text frames with borders, then review the linked Copy Part Layout discussion for related expectations. Done means the layout supports a configurable gap around bordered text frames and preserves that spacing during automatic layout.
