PRO: Backwards-compatibility in cases like
  {
    \compressFullBarRests
    \override MultiMeasureRest.usable-duration-logs = #'(0 -1)
    \time 4/4
    R1*6
  }
(But would we want that?)
PRO: You wouldn’t need another grob property if you want to change the
behaviour of compressed rests.
CON: You could havenother grob property and control the behaviour of
single bar and compressed rests independently.
CON: It’s easier to code (at least if you don’t have such an extra
property).
