I'm also interested in the answer to this question. None of the 3/4 time
scores I've looked at in my (admittedly limited) musical experience use
dotted half-rests ("r2." in LilyPond) for a full measure rest. Instead,
they all use whole rests ("r1" in Lilypond).
This caused me many difficulties the first time I tried to use LilyPond.
