The short answer is no. Rehearsal letters are one of those things, which not being essential to the musical information, are moved around to avoid collisions. Almost everything else takes precedence over rehearsal letters. I generally have set them so that they avoid the top of the treble clef by a fraction of a space, then tweak them from there as necessary when they show up mid-system.
As for repeat lines, I set them to the height that will apply to the most parts possible, then tweak all the others. If I use the height that is good for chord parts, they will be too high for almost all the other instruments, except maybe flute and trombone. It continues to drive me nuts that multi measure rests inside a repeat ending will cause the repeat lines to be partially uneditable in page view because the handles are hidden. I have to switch to scroll view to drag them over. It also continues to drive me nuts that old files need constant hoop-jumping-through to get repeat endings to appear on all staves. New files seem to be okay.
