In fact, Ross specifically uses this as an example of what NOT to do
in 6/8, 9/8 and 12/8. He says quarter rest, eighth note on the same
beat in all compound meters EXCEPT 3/8. But never eighth note,
quarter rest on the same beat!
He also says to use dotted quarter rests and dotted half rests in 9/8
and 12/8 time, as they clarify the beat, but not in 6/8.

Many thanks, Christopher.
Now, does anyone know of an easy way to convert all pairs of two
eighth rests on the beat into quarter rests? I see that TGTools has
a plug-in that seems to do the reverse...
And what's the kosher whole measure rest in 6/8 and 16/8?

Just a whole rest is a correct full measure rest in all meters,
except in 4/2 and 8/4 (and one would assume 16/8, but Ross doesn't
mention it specifically) which use a breve.
