My first reponse is of course you can have only one mark per barline.
Let's say I want a rehearsal letter (e.g., "K") over a barline and then
in the following measure have a tempo change markup -- an unbelievably
common occurrence, appearing many times in nearly every orchestral score
I own.
Sounds like more trouble than it *should be* in Lilypond...
I agree; also note that the end of one system and the beginning of the
next system are the same bar line. In other words, you can't print one
\mark at the end of a line and have a different \mark at the beginning of
the next line. (such as "Fine" "Trio" in a minute and tiro)
The shared barline is also behind the problem in the thread entitled, Mixed
Questions. You can't have a double bar line at the end of a system and a
repeat barline at the start of the next. The trick is that these are
exceptions that assume a break at a specific place. The fix would involve
changing Lilypond's bar-line behaviour based on where the breaks are placed.
