Actually, I looked at the problem and the C code and decided that it was
not doable (I'm no Morley it would appear).  I figured out that a \once
\override "at the right moment" would have worked, but since the whole
point of the Completion_heads_engraver is to_not_  figure out the bar
beginnings (for example, because of writing a canon with non-whole-bar
offset) I thought proposing that would be no help at all.

What works as well is \override and \revert, or \tieUp and \tieNeutral, and this is indeed an option. My usecase for the Completion_heads_engraver is Renaissance music with the score fitted into barlines (and long notes split with ties, an authentical practice of the time), while the parts may be notated without barlines. So the part would not be bothered by any \tieUp and \tieNeutral overrides.
Still, it _would_ be good to have a more intuitive solution. But it’s OK.

Best, Simon
