Well, I think, I understand, what you do there and probably I would be
able to do something for a limited number of rests (let's say two :-). But
after two minutes of thinking about the problem I discovered, that it
isn't so easy to shift the rests intelligently. You should know, which of
the two voices to which they belong is 'higher', so the appropriate rest
can be shifted higher, than the other one, right? (There are a lot of
(resolvable) complications with this: one or both voices may just start
with the rest, or end with it, or the voices 'cross' at the rest). And, to
be honest, my understanding of lily's internals is not good enough to find
out this kind of things.

Hmmmm....
