Line breaks are calculated after the repeats have been expanded, so this isn't 
possible unless you do manual line breaks after the repeat (it could be 
possible to invent a \percentBreak, which forces percent repeats to be 
unfolded once after the break).

Insertion of such breaks _could_ be automated with hacks similar to 
LaTeX's .aux files, but that solution is probably too dirty/inelegant to be 
implemented in lilypond.
