I also meant that I saw no problem for LilyPond 2.18 to handle what
he described in text. In traditional music, all the measures are the
same length, but sometimes the logical "A" and "B" parts begin a
fraction of a measure early, or repeats happen in the middle of a
measure.

This looks like it has five beats in a measure. We don't want to dance
to that. We want to finish the first tune in time to start the pickup
for the next tune in rhythm, so the tunes fit into a set.
\relative b' {
\partial 4 c4
c2. \bar"!" \break
d4 d1 }
Maybe new LilyPond will allow you to put \partial in the middle of a
piece, but we do not want to use \partial in the middle of a piece.
