hmm, we already have this as a postponed bug...

I have found it labelled "Insert Rest", it is just a crude script:

(d-InsertA)
(d-RemoveNoteFromChord)

It needs upgrading to turn off immediate playback (if on) and restore afterwards and to return to the previous position of cursor at the end. But isn't something simpler possible? I guess we are missing d-GetPrevailingDuration
with that we can use the built-in rest insertion commands. Or someone could write a built-in for this?

hmm, further trials with Insert mode have also yielded strange behavior. What is d-EnterRest??? I can't track it down, it doesn't appear to be in the binary sources.

(d-EnterRest) works fine in Insert mode. It seems to do something strange in Classic mode.

Not intending to beat to death what's basically I assume a temporary hack, it has one further shortcoming: it moves the cursor position to A, so that for example using EnterRest to enter the music
g4 r8 d8 ... (in lily notation)
produces the d a fifth above the g rather than the 4th below as would be expected. The denemo input would be:
2 g 3 [EnterRest] d

I do think EnterRest is a valuable feature so that's why I'm pointing this out.

Plus it would be nice to silence the playback so that entering a rest doesn't sound like a note.

The command EnterRest under NotesRests \RestEntry doesn't work properly when you try to enter a rest in the middle of other music.
E.g. enter
c d e f
then cursor back to between the e and the f. Execute EnterRest and it doesn't work properly, it replaces the f with an a and then prints a rest.
This script seems to work properly:
(d-InsertA)
(d-CursorLeft)
(d-RemoveNoteFromChord)
(d-CursorRight)
