Okay, thanks for all the input. I feel better now knowing that the barrel shortening isn't an extreme or unusual step, and that it probably hasn't compromised the instrument. We're going to try it out for a few days before we make a final decision whether to keep it or not.

At this point, we've got the CSG and a new R13 we're going to trial side-by-side for several days before making a final decision. Both instruments sound beautiful and (now) have good intonation. My daughter seems to prefer the action on the CSG as it has a very light touch, whereas the R13 is noticeably stiffer. I'm not sure how big a factor that should be in the decision, though. I'm wondering if she wouldn't get used to the stiffer action of the R13 after an adjustment period. Anyone willing to share an opinon on this?
