Measure numbers colliding with slurs

When measures are continuously numbered, they frequently collide with slurs/ties, which looks pretty bad:

(I gather that in the autoplace algorithm, measure numbers don't move, just other text, etc. tries to avoid colliding.)

If I turn measure numbers off and add rehearsal marks in the "Bar Number" style, I get a more pleasing result, where the colliding text automatically moves to avoid the slur:

(Moving the bar numbers seems to be typical in published musical theatre charts, where continuous numbering is common.)

Is there any way to achieve such a result without going and replacing all the measure numbers with "rehearsal marks"? If not, would this be a worthwhile feature? – I could try implement this in a PR.
