It is material which changes its appearance depending on the chosen
breakpoints, since staffs can commit Harakiri in partituras and take the
multimeasure rest along with them.

It is also conceivable to allow several multimeasure rests be conflated
depending on horizontal spacing expediency, but I don't think that we
have something like that currently.

Not sure that the right solution to this problem lies here.
