I'd look at input/test/rests.ly. It looks like the answer might be:
\property Staff.Rest \set #'style = #'mensural
If the durations don't match what you want, you can do
r\longa*1/4 or whatever duration you want.
And then in the other lines, set the rests to be invisible, which I
don't know how to do off the top of my head, but it must be possible.
Or you can probably use s4 if you are doing what I suggest above using
invisible barlines.
I don't understand why you can't use s4. To make an invisible rest,
just set the transparent property.
