I have tried to use the automatic page breaking, but so far always
decided it wasted my time and decided to use manual breaks.
In the example you posted I tried to encourage breaks between scores
with a soft distance, score-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #90
but the page breaker insists on putting one line of the third score
on the second page, and then complains that page is too tight.
I can be more forceful, score-system-spacing #'minimum-distance = #50
and git the page-breaker to comply, but that would force a minimum
gap between scores, and might not be enough to put a shorter third
score on its own page. I see no solution with the existing LilyPond.
