thanks, Paul for publishing it in the LSR.

the fly in the ointment is that in the LSR you can search for the word
"staffsize" but no results are found.
and if you find it yourself (with the number or by scrolling) there is no
picture in it.

suggestion: 

can dak's solution for contexts which have no font-size-engraver (see
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/font-size-for-instrument-names-in-a-PianoStaff-td151335.html#a151336)

\consists "Font_size_engraver"
and
\override InstrumentName.font-size = #-5

be added!?

thanks,
Eluze
