I have quite a few orchestra parts where multimeasure rest streaks of
several lengths are _not_ conflated.  Basically, each such rest stands
for a recognizable unit.

What you need here in my opinion is something else: a command that just
passes time (using s or R or something else) until a specified event
occurs initiated from another voice, and then resumes.
