Ummm ... but if that's the case, that's his problem.
HOWEVER. Has lily's behaviour changed? It's always (iirc) been the case
that if you want to break a line of music in the middle of a bar, you
have to put a blank barline in. You can (or could) only break on a
barline. I don't remember it ever being documented that it actually
starts a new bar!
If you want the behaviour you describe it's easy - just put a space rest
in. If you want the behaviour I describe, how are you supposed to get
it? (I suppose you could again put a spacer rest in :-)
But as I remember it, \bar doesn't actually mess about with the timing,
precisely because a lot of music doesn't have timings and still wants
(random :-) barlines.
Cheers,
Wol
