I've been playing around with it like a duck with water, but one
question remains.

How do I get the lyrics attached to a particular voice after \partcombine has
gotten done with it?  I want the lyrics to show up between staves.

I see from this post (January 11, 2005) that another fellow, more
technically competent than me, ran into the same problem.  At the time,
Han-Wen said the problem was intractable.

Has it been fixed since then?  Do I have to regretfully abandon use of
partcombine?
