Hi Thomas,
> I doubt that this new default behavior reflects common practice, though
As a pianist, I can tell you it absolutely does reflect common engraving
practice for piano staves: It is a very rare piano score (perhaps 1/10 of 1%)
that contains only a single staff. That is precisely the reason
Keep_alive_together_engraver was [fairly recently] added to Lilypond.
Of course, engraving practice is different for other multi-staff instruments
(e.g., harp often uses a single staff) — but in that case, you can simply
define a custom context (e.g., HarpStaff) in which the
Keep_alive_together_engraver is removed by default.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
