I like you was initially surprised that \partial are only allowed at the
beginning. However I found that this can be avoided by simply moving the
repeat sign. Example: Usually fold songs are written like this:
\time 4/4  |:  a8  | ......   |  ... | a2.  :| where 2 partials are needed.
I workaround it by writing it like this
\time 4/4  |  a8  |: ......   |  ... | a2.  a8:| where 1 partial is needed
and repeating the first note in the last measure.
