I disagree (see below). The reason why the rests "look strange" is
that the change Pitch gives them a different "pitch" and therefore
affects their vertical placement. Gilles, perhaps it might be worth
adding a filter to leave rests alone?

I'm not gonna add a new issue named "\partcombine sucks" -- we already
know it does :)

Does it? The following snippet looks fine to me:

{
  c'1
  \partcombine { d' d' d' d' } { d' c' c' }
  c'
}

Cheers,
