I just found a problem with an old doc-commit of mine
(0a8cfef, from May 7 2010). I implicitly endorsed using
barchecks in the lyrics input (see LM 2.3.1 "Setting simple
songs"). Unfortunately, when the measure following a
barcheck starts with a rest, a "barcheck failed" warning
results, which is unsatisfactory:
I suppose the options are:
1) remove the lyrics-barchecks from the docs, and mention
(somewhere) that barchecks do not work in lyrics input.
2) make barchecks work in lyrics mode (i.e. with rests).
I prefer #2 -- I think it's a valuable feature to have. But
as I've implied recently, I'm too busy at the moment to be
getting my hands dirty with LilyPond patches, though I do
have enough time to start discussions. Should I file an
"Enhancement" issue on the tracker?
I'd like to see an issue covering this. Even if a fix
is a long time coming it is best to have the issue recorded.
I think I'd call this a defect rather than an enhancement,
though.

This would seem to be issue #99, Trevor, and given it was reported in
2006, I suspect a fix will, indeed, be a long time coming!
