Comment #10 on issue 2300 by [email protected]: Patch: do not tinker with the
position of a pitched rest
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2300
Totally reasonable. It is conceivable that the ledger line breve rest is
there for the purpose of being able to properly reproduce a minority of
engravings. But without more definite information, I would keep things
just as you did. It might also be that a square blob outside of the system
is less recognizable without ledger lines than a long block, and this was
the motivation. And it may be that the duration of a longa rest is such
that you would never employ it in multi-voice situations, so there is no
point in a glyph.
Whatever the reason: if nobody digs up more definite references, my vote is
on merging this patch. Its behavior seems reasonable to me.
