The very concept of beats within a cadenza goes against the
whole idea of a cadenza in the first place. [ ... ]
The user will almost always need to do some manual beams.
Perhaps the best answer is to have \candezaOn turn off autobeaming.

The way auto-beaming 'worked' 2.12 was by accident, so the change I noticed
with 2.13 is _not_ a bug.
Opinions of correct behavior are varied, so we have _no_ enhancement request.
We recommend that users manually beam in cadenzas, at least in long cadenzas.
Myself, I make mistakes typing manual beams. In cadenzas where I want pattered beams, I
can use \cadenzaOff\bar""\cadenzaOn at the natural breaks. This resets
measurePosition to zero often enough that auto-beaming happens to 'work' and helps me
find when I miss a note. I know LilyPond does not guarantee that behavior.
The more disciplined among us can \cadenzaOn\autoBeamOff . . .
\cadenzaOff\autoBeamOn
