Okay, this does not cause big gaps in the spacing, but still looks terrible.
In particular, the time signatures etc. are crammed into the available small
space, possibly colliding with barlines or notes if there is not enough space
(the same problem happens with Kieren's idea to set all extents to 0). I
suppose the only real good-looking solution would be to not synchronize the
moments of the Vla staff with the other staves exactly. If you look at
Werner's original image, you'll see that the moments are not exactly matched
for these staves, but the notes in the Vla staff are positioned separately
from all other staves. This makes all staves look good.
Now, I think (yes, that means I'm just guessing and not knowing ;-) ) that
something like that is really not possible in LilyPond right now...
Who or what is responsible for calculating the note spacing / positioning? I
tried moving the Spacing_engraver from the score to the InnerStaffGroups and
the Staff, but that didn't have any effect...
Cheers,
Reinhold
