Yes.  \removeEmptyStaffContext copies the new context over the
previous one.  Or something like this.

I remember a discussion about this, 2-5 years ago, on either the
bug-lilypond list or lilypond-devel list.  Han-Wen said it wasn't a
bug; after the explanation, Mats (who began arguing against it)
agreed.

If somebody more knowledgeable than me (i.e. Reinhold :)  wants to dig
up the discussion an continue the debate, I'd be all for that.
