That's basically what I do, but using \time. With your example I use:
\relative c'{\partial 8 c8 |
c4 d e f |
\override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f \time 7/8 d2 c4. \bar "|." |
}
Since I'm combining Soprano and Alto voices into one staff, this allows me
to put all the timing information in the Soprano voice and have the Alto
voice inherit it.
