I realise it isn't at draft stage yet, but I thought I'd say that  
there's a slight inaccuracy in 1.5.3, \oneVoice doesn't put a voice  
into the same voice context before and after a temporary polyphonic  
passage, not explicitly creating two new voices does that. \oneVoice  
just sets the beams and stems so that they go the direction they're  
supposed to. It's the the equivalent of setting \stemNeutral  
\beamNeutral \tieNeutral \slurNeutral \phrasingSlurNeutral and  
anything else that \voiceOne ... \voiceFour sets to #UP or #DOWN.
