Ralph,
In this case, it's probably not worth investigating further.
Let's just remove the |: at the beginning of a piece and state
that "according to standard typsetting rules, by default repeat
signs are not printed at the beginning of a bar".
If an advanced user adds a snippet to LSR showing how to change
this, great; we can add that snippet easily. But it's probably
not worth us wasting more time on this ourselves.
Cheers,
