I suggest you remove the fallback value from
inherit-x-parent-visibility (or if you prefer, add another callback
for y-parent visibility without a default) otherwise grobs which don't
care about break-visibility (such as noteheads) will lose their
footnotes.

I'm afraid I'm at a loss to suggest anything better, so I'll have to
put up with it (unless anybody else can think of a better way.
