I mean "{r | R | s} in all contexts that the engraver is looking at".
That is, if the engraver is in a Staff with multiple voices, then all
voices must have rests. If the engraver is in a GrandStaff, all the
voices of all the staves must have rests, etc.

How about:
+sections without notes (either @code{r} or @code{R} rests or
address@hidden skips). Rests or skips must be present in all contexts within 
the scope
+of the engraver. That is, if the engraver in is a Staff with multiple
+voices, then all the voices must have rests.
