Would it be worth it to have a pair of settings -- probably something
like manual-page-breaks = ##t and manual-line-breaks = ##t in the
layout block -- that told lily "do not ever create a page break except
where I say so explicitly with \pageBreak", and likewise for \break?
I kinda wonder how many people out there have a breaks-voice sitting
in the first staff of their score -- just like in Joe's example -- and
how much simpler those breaks-voices would be if they could consist
only of explicit \breaks and \pageBreaks ...
