Isn't the problem that beams create melismata in vocal music, and you
don't want to have a line break in the middle of a melisma?
Baroque melisme can go on for lines. Do we have a way to discourage
breaks but not completely disallow them?
Absolutely.
Last week, while typesetting a chorus from Messiah with many beams
crossing
bar lines, I was about to report that as a bug. The lines were just
running out
of the page, which is a bug, period.
In an ideal world, LilyPond would try not to break beams, but not
forbid it.
In a "worst is better" world (that is, our world), breaking beams is
just not
forbidden.
