percussion staves

Hi to all,
I searched thru docs and archives but I wasn't able to make my ideas clear.

I'm writing for percussions, so I was taking a look at Varèse's Intégrales. Percussionist 2 has five percussions: three chinese blocks (h, m, l: 3 lines), castanets (1 line) and a cymbals (1 line). As a result, the staff is made up of three lines (with standard interline space) for chinese blocks, plus two other lines with greater interline space (as a standard for percussions without 5 lines staff), one for castanets and one for cymbals.

i.e.:

cymb.   _______________

cast.           _______________

chin. bl. h     _______________
chin. bl.m      _______________
chin. bl. l     _______________

Is is possible to create such a staff?  Could anyone post an example?

I only know how to set the number of lines (StaffSymbol #'line-count) and how to change Staff's interline space (for all lines: StaffSymbol #'staff-space).

Thanks a lot
