Well, that does strike me as the kind of problem that no intelligent 
application should allow to happen. Notes in measures should 
automatically break multi-measure rests, without the user being 
required to do anything.

I also think that staff optimization should not be something that you 
have to remove and then re-apply. If you insert new measures, or 
insert data in previously empty measures (or you clear/hide 
previously populated measures), if you've got optimization turned on, 
it should automatically cause the system to re-optimize. I think it's 
crazy that the optimization information is stored with the absolute 
system rather than as a global setting that automatically updates the 
optimization when conditions change to warrant it.
