As of version 2.19.12, \partial is allowed in mid-measure.

An upgrade to a current developer version might be worth considering
(though I think the last few versions had various problems).  I'm not
sure this will help with the autobeam problem, but once you are using a
version similar to that of the developers, the chances for them being
able to offer good advice and/or reproduce problems are better.
