The Lilypond documentation at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/creating-titles-headers-and-footers
suggests that this is intended behaviour, although I found it quite
unexpected. I have now fixed my problem by inserting an additional empty
MovementTitles block as shown in attached score.
By the way, is there a possibility to remove an entry of MovementTitles
or ScoreTitles once set other than editing the fields in the Low Level
Denemo Directive Edit dialog?
