Comment #5 on issue 1150 by reinhold.kainhofer: RehearsalMark at start of  
line should not be printed above the clef

Gardner Read does not mention anything about rehearsal marks at the  
beginning of a line... (he only says that alternatively bar numbers might  
be used, and they should go above/immedately to the RIGHT of the clef. he  
even gives an example that a bar number to the left of the clef is  
INCORRECT...)

On the other hand, looking at a bunch of scores with rehearsal marks, they  
show the following behaviour:
-) Beethoven's 9th by Breitkopf: mark centered at the right end of the key  
signature
-) Haydn's Jahreszeiten by Universal Edition: mark just above the key  
signature (to the right of the clef)
-) Gounod's Messe Solennelle by Edition Peters: Mark above the first note  
(to the right of the key signature)
-) Beethoven's Missa solemnis by Breitkopf: Mark centered on a "virtual"  
bar line between the key signature and a possible time signature or the  
next note.
-) Mahler's 8th by Universal Edition: Mark centered on a "virtul" bar line  
after the key signature
-) Puccini's Il Tabarro by Ricordi: Mark between the piano and the vocal  
staves right above the clef.

So, Ricordi's Il Tabarro is the only score that shows the same behavior as  
LilyPond currently does. All other scores show the mark at least after the  
clef, most of the times also after the key signature...
