Ok, my manually painted \bar lines have no effect on accidentals (either by design, or as a side effect of a design that has other good reasons to be as it is).

I've just looked through the manual a bit, and it leads me to doubt whether it's possible to remove an engraver for a single note. I see that it's possible to do for a single context, e.g. Staff, but I do want accidentals elsewhere in the bassoon part.

It's not a big deal, just a little detail that surprised me.
