Re: Automatic beaming with rest

The documentation explicitly says “the autobeamer will not put beams over rests 
or bar lines” 
(<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/beams#manual-beams>). I 
hope someone [with real Scheme-fu] offers you a function/callback/hack that 
will do it automagically, since I sometimes need the same thing!

Of course, you could write a music function to handle it — but you wouldn’t 
save much typing over the manual process, so that wouldn’t really be worth it…

Cheers,
Kieren.
