Hi,
2.13.54
Does it ever make sense for RemoveEmptyStaffContext to remove all staves?
Should not at least one be kept alive showing the rests?
Is there a way to force this behavior? I haven't gotten the following to
work yet to see whether it will do what I want:

Not to distract from the interesting question, but if there really
were that many rests in a real score, wouldn't you rather display that
section as a big multi-measure rest? In that case you would always be
left with some notes in each system...

Let's say this was a French-scored bass trombone and tuba part where
both instruments were resting for a long time which went through several
sections. There would be several multi-measure rests with several
rehearsal letters in between. This could easily take up one or more
lines. Currently RemoveEmptyStaffContexts removes the staves and only
leaves the bar numbers and rehearsal marks.
In the case I'm working on now I'm adding a voice staff to my reed part
since we are playing without a conductor. The original typically has 4
bars per line and there is a 4 bar rest in the reed part which should
take up one line.
