Measure repeats
In the percent style, a note pattern can be repeated. It is
printed once, and then the pattern is replaced with a special sign.
Patterns of a one and two measures are replaced by percent-like signs,
patterns that divide the measure length are replaced by slashes.
\context Voice { \repeat "percent" 4 { c'4 }
\repeat "percent" 2 { c'2 es'2 f'4 fis'4 g'4 c''4 }
}

The signs are represented by these grobs: RepeatSlash and PercentRepeat and DoublePercentRepeat .
BUGS
You can not nest percent repeats, e.g. by filling in the first measure with slashes, and repeating that measure with percents.
