Yes sorry, I did not mean to oppose any good idea out of lazyness or
whatever, I was just thinking that assigning a midi channel to each
separate voice would lead to problems for those pple using temporary
voices to fix note layouts.

One obstacle however to move the assignment of midi channels from staff
to voice might be that maybe all the properties would have to be moved
from the staff context to the voice context, but I'm not aware so much
of the 'internals' of Lilypond.
But I agree that it would be nice indeed if one had the choice to assign
separate midi channels to separate voices, avoiding the need to write
each voice on a separate staff.
