lilypond bar numbers, string choosing?

Thanks for all the help -- if anyone is interested in the bass line of
Bach's bourree in e minor transposed for mandolin, let me know :).

I do have two more questions, one minor, one major, so to speak:

1) is it really true that bar numbers cannot printed on every bar (so
   says node `Bar numbers'?  This would be very helpful when working on
   a score.

2) when generating tablature, it occurs to me that lilypond could in
   theory choose a default string for a given pitch.  Usually there is
   only one reasonable choice.  E.g., in violin tuning the second string
   would be chosen for pitches between d (the space above middle c) and
   g' (the second line in treble clef), inclusive.
   
   I realize tablature is a new feature and all, and I'm truly impressed
   that Lilypond can do staff/tablature output so easily already, but
   ... Just a suggestion.  It would make it possible to transpose pieces
   up and down and (probably) change absolutely nothing. (!)

Thanks again,
karl
