Aaron, Thanks for the tip. I'd forgotten about this default. I do know that beaming 4 eights together in common time is, in general, standard practice, but there are cases where it leads to ugly results — where large intervals are involved, for instance — and I was annoyed that I couldn't override this behavior with the "rebeam" command and had to resort to beam-breaking by hand.
