When to break multi-measure rests automatically

The current implementation of multi-measure rests has a measure property
that allows you to break these rests manually. However there are a
number of instances which should add this property automatically.
Attached is a example screenshot of Sibelius doing this.


The following items should always break a multi-measure rest (by adding
a "break multi measure rest" property to the same measure)

* Change of time signature
* Change of key signature
* Rehearsal mark
* Begin repeat bar line

The following items should always break a multi-measure rest (by adding
a "break multimeasure property to the next measure)

* End repeat bar line
* Double bar line
* End bar line

Hi,

But not if it is the first measure. In fact it's not possible to unckeck the option at bar 1. But you often have a 'tacet' at the beggining of a part.
It seems that this behaviour has been implemented and occurs at measure 1.
