Short of using in-line TeX, I can't think of any way except with blind meter
changes as you suggested. I suppose in some milennium I should go back and
make "X" spaces before mid-bar barlines behave the same way as those at
end-of-bar barlines. But this is the first time this has ever come up.
Meanwhile, consider using blind meter changes and the fact that X-spaces
before end-of-bar barlines do come before the line.
Also, in case you are planning to split your score into separate parts, you
should be aware that scor2prt will not deal properly with "Rd" etc unless it
is at the beginning of an input block. This is an even stricter requirement
than having it at the beginning of a bar. (Otherwise I would need to have
taught scor2prt how to count time, so it would know where to put the barline
in other voices than where it was coded).
