Yes I see :) Well it's p.160 in the english version. In my opinion, this
rule only applies when you write with a single staff, that's all. I
understand why LP has been configured that way and your right, it's not a
bug. But I'll have to remember correcting that each time I write for several
musicians or at least with 2-staves instruments!

It seems to me to be an engraving issue, especially when you write
orchestral music. Don't you think it would be a good idea to put the
demonstration with \override MultiMeasureRest.spacing-pair = #'(staff-bar .
staff-bar) in the documentation after

?
