will result in two no-chord symbols unless you assign it once.

What I meant was: would you use the chord name function to return the
`N.C.' markup to the engraver before it creates the ChordName (so
noChordSymbol would be read inside the function, rather than directly
in the engraver)?
I favour reading it directly in the engraver, even though all the
other properties (apart from chordChanges) are accessed by the
formatting function.

I don't think this would be a problem, since last_chord_ would be '(()
()) if the previous ChordName is generated from a rest event.
