Patrick, If you use your method with a piano braille format GOODFEEL will indicate that the first measure is "1" and not "0". Your method will look OK for the cello because measure numbers are not brailled by default.

That makes things a bit more consistent in my opinion, since I am running into pickup measures after a repeat in many of my pieces, for example the Vivaldi Sonata in E Minor for Cello and Piano. Every movement has a pickup measure at the beginning of one beat, which may or may not be one note. Then the section plays out and ends in a repeat followed by another pickup measure to start the next section until the end of the movement.

Sorry for any confusion.

Sometimes this is called bar 0.
