I think this should not be a critical regression.

Critical regressions are things that used to *deliberately* work.  We used  
to have no special alignment for multi-measure rests, as I understand it.   
Now that we have instituted proper alignment for multi-measure rests (see  
issue 684), when we have multi-measure rests in parallel with notes, it  
picks the multi-measure rest.  This particular set of code never  
*deliberately* worked before (i.e., there was not a decision to choose the  
note-column instead of the bar); there was no option to use the bar (which  
is the desired performance for multi-measure rests).

The workaround is simple, using a \once \override.

I'd be fine with a High priority, but I think it's a mistake to label it  
Critical.
