Hmmm...  I'm really not sure.  I tried it with a multi-voice example and no
problems there...  I guess I would really need to see an example where it's
breaking down.

But since staccato is the only articulation that has a value set for
'toward-stem-shift, you could just override it to 0 and revert it for when
you want the staccato-alone orientation.  (I must say that the engraver
seems like overkill! :)  )
