I just put in the rehearsal marks (\mark \markup{\box A} etc. where needed)
and when AB is to repeated I just write it on the staff:
\staffText "AB" g2 s4 \bar "|."
g2 is the note that I replace with "AB", and staffText is defined as:
staffText = #(define-music-function (parser location marktext)
(string?)
#{
\once \override NoteHead #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\once \override NoteHead #'text = #(markup #:whiteout $marktext )
\once \override Stem #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\once \override Stem #'text = ""
#})
