So if we can do both of these at once, with the barline on the staff
invisible, and the one between it visible, we have what I'm talking
about.

I don't see why it should screw up the representation, unless the new
standard is requiring that an ABC parser look at the note lengths and
the bar lines and insist that they be compatible. Which I hadn't
noticed, and it would be a bad mistake.
That is, the following ABC should be perfectly legal.
X:1
T: notes cross barlines without ties
M:C
L:1/4
K:C
G6 | A2 | B4
If we were using mensurstriche, the first barline should be under the
dotted whole note, instead of between it and the half note.
I haven't ever done ABC like this, because as I said in my first post,
I don't like mensurstriche, but abc2ly, abc2ps, and abc2midi all do
exactly what you would expect with it.
