Thanks for this workaround, it works really great!
(even better than the 'X-offset).

What do you mean by "Unfortunately 'after-line-breaking is now spoken
for"?  Actually I couldn't catch the meaning of "spoken for"?
Could you give another explanation for non-native English speakers?  ;)

And sorry but I come again with my previous question:

  Can't it be the default settings?

:)

Well, that explains me the "when", not the "why"...
But anyway, I'm quite sure I would have understood it.  :p

Actually that doesn't seems necessary with your second workaround.

But that should be fine for my second \score (with the repeat without
KeySignature), what do you think?

Should I ask the Bug Squad members to add 2 new issues on the tracker?

  1. for this RehearsalMark placement issue at beginning of line ;

  2. to create a separate grobs for clefs and clef changes so they
     could have different space-alist defaults.

Thank you,
Xavier
