Thanks, that's great.

Of course you are right, in normal staff contexts
a notation program has no problem to provide the
combined symbol (ledger plus rest).

But in PriMus 2.0 there will be diatonic accordion staves,
which include chord/bass-tracks, that consist also
of free rest symbols. In this context the staffless
rests are extremely useful.
