Trevor, the problem with "newer" examples is that it is harder to  
get "reputable" sources.  I looked into Musette here, and I have a Jacques  
Brel showing r8 [88888] as well.  But then we are not exactly talking about  
a famous publisher, and it is likely that we see the results of computer  
program choices rather than of skilled engravers.

But in situations where one would beam full six eights together, I don't  
see that subdividing any upbeat group leading to the next measure makes  
sense musically: the character of the upbeat notes is supposed to be the  
same as the character of the full group.
