As we discussed earlier, this rhythm, f4 r8 f f f, could be
handled by implementing a 'start' rule as well as an 'end' rule,
to be sure beams could be started only on beats, couldn't it?

Yes, I've added start rules that solve that problem. I don't only start on beats, but I avoid starting on the last note of a beat. After all, I think
we'd want the 16th notes in r8 f16 f f8 f f4 beamed together.

Sounds good.

The harder problem is

f8 f f r f f

which will beam the first 3 notes together under the current rules.

Why doesn't the lack of an end rule at 3/8 prevent this?

I think that subdivideUnit (or fundamentalUnit) and beatStructure are a good
set.

Agreed.  fundamentalUnit might be better - it describes better
what it is and gives the freedom in the future to subdivide in
a different way, should the need arise.
