Hi, first of all, i'm not sure if this is a bug, or a feature-request/improvement.

I looked at the example of staff-container.ly, for making 2 staffs separated 
horizontally by a blank space.

I'm using lilypond 2.0 and this is the code for showing the "problems":

%---------------->8------------begin of ly----
\paper  {linewidth = 455.244096\pt indent = 0}
quarterSkip = #(make-nonevent-skip (ly:make-duration 2 0))
\score  {
    \notes \relative c'' 
        \new StaffContainer {
            <<  \new Staff { c4 d e f g a b c
                c,1 d e f g a b c \bar "||" }
            >>
            \quarterSkip 
            <<  \new Staff { f,4 e d c 
                f,1 e d c \bar "|." }
            >> 
        }
\paper {}
}
%----------------8<------------end of ly---------

The main problem using this method is a BAR that appears at the beggining of the line, 
similar to that bar which joins two or more staffs, but with the difference that there 
is only one line, and there is no need for that bar. When there are more lines looks 
not very nice.

Another problem (maybe easier to solve) is that the measure is broken after the blank 
space. If measure is 4/4, and fill it, seems to be too much, like if the blank space 
occupies itself one quarter.

Another problem ;) is that the double bar is a bit shifted to the right, and the 
second vertical bar is out off the staff.


And you can look at the less important problem that i've found, if you comment the 
line with "\quarterSkip" to remove the blank space. And this maybe is related with the 
previous one. You notice that the double bar (\bar "||") appears AFTER the new clef, 
and not BEFORE. :) But, that's not really so important.


thanks,
joseluis
