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.
