I haven't read the new standard about multiple staves, but does it allow specification of bar's *between* the staves but *not* on them? This is something a lot of people (not me) like for early music that was originally published as unbarred parts. It's usually easier for modern players to sightread from a score which has the indication of where the barlines might be, but doesn't need to screw up representation of the note lengths. That is, a note length that straddles a bar can still be represented as one note, and not two tied notes.
