Simply letting us specify the Voices _once_ for the whole output of

It would, and I’m glad you’re encouraging me to dig up my ancient patch to do
that, but I wasn’t thinking of making any user-visible changes in the scope of
the work suggested in this thread. (That could come later.)
Well, if I can't use it, I am less motivated to review it.
I am eager for either nameable outputs from \partcombine, or VoiceGroup, in
LilyPond so we can have a stable and functional \partcombineUp/Down.
Include an example in your patch, where we want to rearrange the routing
of soloI, unison, etc., to Voices mid-piece.
This suggestion was motivated by recent work on cases in which both parts are
resting. If the desired action is to route only one of the voices to the
shared voice, the Scheme half currently can only say “unisilence” and the
Part_combine_iterator picks a voice. The problem is that sometimes it doesn’t
pick well. It seems that the Scheme half has the information to make a better
decision.
Oh, so you meant let the Scheme portion dictate to partcombine_iterator which
_input_ voice, as it iterates the music expression produced by \partcombine, to
use.
That makes more sense. However, the current problem with the iterator picking which
input part to route to output Voice "shared", seems best solved by your current
patch, that marks these situations as 'apart-silence' whenever there is a difference
between the input parts.
