Accident rules are implemented before line-breaking. If they were to
take line-breaking into account, they'd need to be quite more complex.
There is some special-cased code trying to fudge around an accidental on
a tied note broken across a barline (it should have a repeated
accidental only when a linebreak occurs) but it cannot deal with
followup changes: if another note with an accidental follows, _that_
accidental always is printed even if spurious.
One would have to think up a good data structure to cater in advance for
all possible line breaks and how to write rules in anticipation of it.
