Thanks for the input. What with one thing and another, I didn't do the 2007 upgrade. I got the impression from a friend that it wasn't different from 2006, but I haven't done the experimentation with the specifics I know about. Now you mention it, I seem to remember whole rests being a problem. I just don't even use 2006 enough to remember exactly what it was. 2005 had slightly different problems.
