When using a cadenza across several measures (for engraving unmetered Russian liturgical music), accidentals are displayed only the first time they occur.

I.e.:

\cadenzaOn

d4 e f2( d8[ e] f4) f f4 f( e2 f4) d1
\bar "|"
e4 e e f( e) d cs d1
\bar "|"
f2 ( d8[ e] f4) f f4 f( e2) f4 d1
\bar "|"
e4 e e f( e d) cs d1
\bar "|"
f2 ( d8[ e] f4) f f( e2 f4 d2 f4 e d cs d) e d1
\bar "|"
e4 e e e f( e) d cs8([ d] e4 d cs) d1
\bar "||"

\cadenzaOff

C sharp, which occurs in lines 2, 4, 5, and 6, is only displayed the first time
it occurs, in line 2.

Since using \cadenzaOn and \cadenzaOff is a recommended solution for engraving
unmetered music (see
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Working-with-ancient-music_002d_002dscenarios-and-solutions),
it would be great if the issue were corrected, or else a workaround provided and the issue inserted on the above page in the "known issues and warnings" section.

Thank you!

There was a deal of discussion about this earlier - see http://old.nabble.com/unexpected-accidental-following-cadenza-td33433289.html. I could see some advantage in documenting this. James - do you agree?
