New issue 4303 by tdanielsmusic: Misleading documentation of bar checks in  
lyrics
https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4303


The documentation of bar checks in lyrics does not contain a warning about  
placing a bar check before the first syllable in a bar which starts with a  
rest (see Issue 99).

Also the section which introduces the setting of songs in the LM (see  
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/songs )
rather encourages new users to use bar checks in lyrics.  In view of the  
pitfalls this advice is now seen to be misguided.  Bar checks in lyrics  
should be mentioned only briefly and not used in the examples.
