Here’s a hack that shows the desired outcome [in the first measure]:

\version "2.18.2"

{
   \partial 2
   <<
     { \oneVoice a'4^\markup { Unprefixed }( a'4) }
     \\
     { \once \hide Rest \tweak extra-spacing-width #'(10 . 10) r2 }
   >>
   a'4( a'4^\markup { Prefixed } a'4)
}

Cheers,
Kieren.
