I’m not sure what you mean: Don’t do anything to Y-offset or
staff-position but set direction to CENTER? This seems to work for MMRs
but for Rests it gives warnings of the type
        warning: cannot resolve rest collision: rest direction not set
Of course it would be nice if you wouldn’t have to \override
staff-position for both Rests and MMRs in the engraver because this
prohibits a manual \override by the user. But there’s this little
inconsistency:

{
  \override Rest.staff-position = 0
  \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = 0
  r1
  R1
}
