It is necessary that both the left and the right page are treated as a pair, having the same number of bars. A good place for a page break is a larger rest in either the left or right hand of one of the two players. Hopefully, the used algorithm can be prepared to handle this -- it's not necessary to implement it right now (it sounds like a sponsored feature :-) but it would be a pity if the new stuff makes it impossible to do that.I think the current plan is to include a page-turn-weight variable that, if set to zero will cause the breaker to ignore page turns entirely. You could then force breaks with \pageBreak and \noPageBreak and do it manually that way. I would like to continue to allow manual overrides as much as possible.Hmm, I don't understand your answer. My main concern is to make lilypond handle the above described situation automatically -- lilypond's normal page breaking algorithm won't work because the left and right page for `primo' and `secondo' have be handledsynchronously.
Obviously, code needs to be written for this special case, to interleave the pages of the two final scores. This might also be a good application of lp-book, btw.
