I assume so that you could have line breaks anywhere instead of only at
the end of a "measure". I've always used it in conjunction with a
default bar type of "empty" or "".
I more often do that by removing the Forbid_line_break_engraver. I do
wish that were a bit more intelligent -- even when I don't mind line
breaking in the middle of a "bar" (I usually typeset Renaissance music
where the composers weren't thinking in measures), I don't usually want
it between a dotted note and the next note. I've been working around
this lack of feature by inserting \noBreak when lily puts a break in an
inconvenient place.
One of my current projects is a set of ricercadas on a bassline in
breves, where breaking only at breves wouldn't produce very good output,
but there are lots of places where it's inconvenient to break the melody
line, so those melody lines have a *lot* of \noBreak's in them.
