David,

How about marking the part "ad libitum?"
Or perhaps making it bar-less as in a cadenza?

Thanks for the suggestions, but they won't really do in this particular
case.  The harpsichord solo is very definitely not "ad libitum", but
must be in strict, quasi-mechanical time.  It is not in any way like a
cadenza and, since the 8 bars that it plays here are actually 2
repetitions of something it played earlier, suddenly to show them
without barlines would confuse matters rather than clarifying them.
