I work with renaissance choral music separated into sections with double barlines. There’s not really any need to put a line-break at these double bars, but it looks bad if the last bar of a section begins a line or the first bar of a section ends a line:

Either this or give orphaned bars a high ugliness coefficient when working out the layout. Are either of these practical?
