I found this in a hymnal between two sections of a song.  It makes
sense to break the line between the sections, and the line break is
the least ugly place to put the time change.

There is also the issue that the bar number is not parenthesized at
the line break, which I didn't notice at first.  I've repeated the
whole example below without any attempt to work around these two
issues.

\version "2.19.0"

music = \relative b' {
  \time 3/4
  b4 b b | b2 \bar "||" \break

  % Known problems:
  %   warning: \time in mid-measure at 1/2
  %   After the break the bar number is not parenthesized.
  \time 4/4
  \partial 4
  f4 | f f f f |
}

\layout {
  indent = 0
  ragged-right = ##t
}

\score {
  \new Staff {
    \set Score.barNumberVisibility = #all-bar-numbers-visible
    \override Score.BarNumber.break-visibility = #end-of-line-invisible

    \music
  }
}
