I don't see anything in the Multimeasure Rest dialog specifically for clef
collisions.  Normally I manually edit multimeasure rests with clefs at the
end by changing the End Point to -50, but I don't want every multimeasure
rest to be shortened, just the ones with clefs at the end.  Am I missing
something?
