Text over bar lines.
Open a piano score, and add a staff text sufficiently long so as to exceed the width of a single bar. Place it between the staves so that the text overlaps the bar line.
In most printed scores I've seen, the barline is broken just enough so as not to interfere with the text. I think Musescore should emulate this behaviour. This might be as simple as having a background around the staff text that is the same color as the page. I can't think of any situations where you wouldn't want the text to be on top of everything else.

I tried covering the bar line with a solid white image (as shown below). I also tried a white Lines . Unfortunately the bar line appears on top of both of these objects instead of below. I wasn't able to find a way to cover up the line.

Is this something that could be added? or would it be opening a can of worms?

Adjust the stacking order of the elements using the inspector.

Works now, but didn't 10 ago.

Now, 10y later you also don't need an image to break a barline, but can give the text a frame with a border and a fill color of chosen transparency.
