I tried to read more about this, and found a mention in the Help for Notation Window:

Automatic options such as auto durations, clean notation, mono display, minimize rests, hard rests, and engraver spacing produce very musical and readable notation.

Help, Search cannot search for XML, but Help, Index, XML does give options for Importing a Music XML file. However, I don't see Minimize Rests as one of the options.
