If you really mean that then you also mean that two voices with shifted 
quarter notes, like this

< { c4 c c c } { r8 c4 c c c8 } >

should get the same spacing as one voice with only eight notes, like this

{ c8 c c c c c c c }

- because in both examples something happens at every eight note and 
hence everything should be spaced as eight notes according to your 
statement.
But nevertheless in another posting you said that this was not what you 
meant.

I seriously don't understand what you want and I am beginning to doubt 
that I ever will understand you. Sorry.

Yes, oyu can always do that - add a voice with invisible notes.
