Hi Thomas,
Here's an example of what I would do. Changing the short instrument
names to reflect what instruments are in use at a certain moment
clutters the music a bit; perhaps a music function of some sort might be
appropriate there.

%% Temporary divisi staff example

DivisiViolinI = \relative c' {
%% Set up proper short instrument names
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "Vl I"
\set StaffGroup.shortInstrumentName = ""
a4 b c d
%% Revert short instrument names
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = ""
\set StaffGroup.shortInstrumentName = "Vl"
}
DivisiViolinII = \relative c' { c4 d e f }
Violin = \new Staff \relative c' {
a4 b c d
<< \DivisiViolinI
\new Staff \with {
shortInstrumentName = "Vl II"
} \DivisiViolinII >>
a b c d
}
%% Line breaks are usually good to have when you add a temporary
%% staff!
TopLevel = \new Dynamics { s1 \break s1 \break s1 }
\score {
<<
\TopLevel
%% Make the Violin line a staff group so it shows a bracket
%% when in divisi
\new StaffGroup \with {
instrumentName = "Violin"
shortInstrumentName = "Vl" } \Violin
>>
