Hi Michael,

The use case is this

%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.21.0"
{ R1*3/4 s4^\markup "some markup" |}
%%%%%%%%%%%

Of course I could achieve that by
%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.21.0"
{ << { \oneVoice R1 } \\ { s2. s4^\markup "some markup" |} >> }
%%%%%%%%%%%
but that seems ugly and at least to me unnecessarily complicated.

It actually is too complicated since using the \\ shorthand creates two new voices. You might just as well write

<< R1 { s2. s4^\markup "some markup" } >>

without needing to resort to \oneVoice etc. At most, I could imagine that

<< R1 \new Voice { s2. s4^\markup "some markup" } >>

might be reasonable.

Best
Lukas
