You sure you want to change the behavior?

The issue had benign effect in four places in the documentation alone.

I don't think anybody has complained about the beams that appear.
(I complained that some disappeared, but in the context of alpha testing, and I 
tried to take that back.)

Googling "cadenzaOn autobeamOff" shows that several users figured out how to 
turn them off for themselves.

If \cadenzaOff turns autobeaming on, then what about scores that turn off 
autobeaming for the whole piece, but then (mis-)use short cadenzas?
