Re: Stanza numbers don't print in partial measures with repeats

[Mats Bengtsson]

This is a known old problem. What would you suggest LilyPond to do in
such a situation when a measure is split across a line break?
One possibility would be to put a bar number at the first full bar
of the line. Another possibility that I would find very confusing if
I had to play the music, would be to write the bar number of the
on-going bar at the beginning of the line. I'm sure that half the
orchestra would fail to notice the split bar if the conductor specified
that bar number in a rehearsal. Are there other options? I don't know
what's most commonly used in printed parts.
