The stuff I do is pretty much all setting parts. But I'd also like to

So you need to break different parts in different places. If your score
then applies all of those breaks ...
Yep - I think it's a very good idea moving explicit breaks out of the
voice context. Question is, can it be done easily? And if so, how?
The way I do it is to have (in i-violin1.ly)
violinIFirstMov = {music}
violinIFirstMovBreaks = {s1*whatever \break s1*somethingElse \break}
Then in violin1.ly
\score {
<< \violinIFirstMov \violinIFirstMovBreaks >>
}
<other movements>
In score.ly, I just leave out all the xxxBreaks variables (I have never had
the need for explicit breaks in a score, but if you do, you can always add
another variable for that). Alternatively you could try using \tag, but that
still requires you to make the music messy with manual breaking information.
The manual counting of the spacer rests is a bit tedious, but apart from
that it works well. (If you use the new page-turn-page-breaking algorithm in
the parts, it cuts down hugely on the number of manual breaks you need).
