Whenever trills are discussed, the focus is always on which note to start on. I think that is fairly clear, but what I never hear talked about is whether you are supposed to trill through the entire duration of the note or end early and let the principal note ring a little. I am curious about this especially in regards to Baroque music and Bach in particular, because looking at the famous table of ornaments pictured here:

It would seem that you are not supposed to trill for the entire duration of the note. But I have never had any teacher tell me about this.
Does anyone know the real story here?
