incomplete tuplets

Recently there was a discussion on the Music Engraving Tips facebook group involving a non-dyadic time signature, that required notating a *pair* of quintuplet 16th notes, without the rest of the quintuplet. It's not that there were rests for the other three. The measure just ended after the first
