Unfortunately, this isn't possible with the current autobeaming mechanism,
which only looks at one note at a time and checks if it's on a beat where
the beam should be started or ended. To do what you want, it would have
to also look at future notes to decide on the beam break.
Of course, if you are skilled in Scheme programming, then it's possible to
implement a music function that adds this kind of beams.

4/4 time. Lilypond 2.11.33.
I'm trying to get the autobeaming behavior to match an existing style
where:
* Up to four eighth notes can be beamed together (subject to the usual
limitations on ending beat)
* But, when sixteen notes share the beam with eighth notes, beams may
not cross beats. Another way of saying this is that a beam can only
have one eighth note and two sixteenth notes.
Perhaps an example will make it clear. I want the autobeamer to make
this:
{ a8 a a a a a a a16 a }
to look like this:
{ a8 [a a a] a [a] a a16 a }
Can someone help me out?
Thanks
Steve
