Well, I can see this, but there were a total of 4 half notes in each
measure, and I don't think the application would accept them into one
measure before you could do the smart shape lines. Am I missing
something? Otherwise, it sounds like a pretty quick workaround.

The accompaniment's first measure contained a measure of 4 16th note

shortcut notation in such a case?
Well, one way to do this is to put in the two half notes on the
appropriate pitches, and define one (or more, if neceesary) smart
shape line to the appriate width(s), and us the smart shape lines to
create the beaming. I found this to be quite a pleasing method, as
the lines were note attached, and stretched, or contracted if the
notes were moved.
