Very good idea ...

The stuff I do is pretty much all setting parts. But I'd also like to 
combine those parts into scores. And, while I don't know how the new 
page breaking handles it, I have come across plenty of parts that have a 
page turn in the middle of a phrase ... (and often a rest close by!!!). 
So you need to break different parts in different places. If your score 
then applies all of those breaks ...

Yep - I think it's a very good idea moving explicit breaks out of the 
voice context. Question is, can it be done easily? And if so, how?

Cheers,
Wol
