Nope. I just copied and pasted the measure several times. When the measure
is at the next line I get the warning
no viable initial configuration found: may not find good beam slope
again with an ugly layout. The staff spacing seems to be affected only
\once.
Sometime before 2.18 I will need to find a new method. The best I can think

This works with 2.16 too. Should I prefer one method to the other because
of some side effects or can I use it interchangeable?
