Actually, thinking about it, I guess that really you didn't want a Line Break command at all - the whole point of the Denemo approach is that except in unusual circumstances you never need concern yourself with where the lines will break. Instead of trying to micro-manage the appearance of the printed page you concentrate on entering the music correctly and then the LilyPond typesetter will generate a beautiful score for you. You may want to use a line break command in some circumstance where the typesetting is not ideal but this is for the more exacting needs, not for a simple piece of music!
