+A new @code{Completion_rest_engraver} is available for automatically
+converting long rests which overrun bar lines, matching the
+@code{Completion_heads_engraver} for notes
+@example
+\layout @{

+    \Voice
+    \remove "Note_heads_engraver"
+    \consists "Completion_heads_engraver"
+    \remove "Rest_engraver"
