I disagree. The definition states nothing about hiding *barlines*
(although technically the implementation of this will obviously involve
hiding barlines). Also, in the example given, none of the bars are
empty - each bar has an event.

Tuplets across barlines are a relatively common notational practice and
work perfectly well in LilyPond. It is undesirable that they should
require a workaround for use in parts with skipBars.

I would be interested in others' opinions on this.
