That’s what I’ve found. (Disclaimer: The part combiner has been improved — is
constantly improving? — of late, and I’ve not needed to use it in a production
score for two or three years, so I can’t say what the current state is exactly
without doing some tests, which I have no time to do right now!)

As you should.

If I recall correctly, I settled on the fact that part combinations (and the
related visuals/texts) are PRESENTATION layer, and not CONTENT layer… so I used
the edition-engraver to "inject" commands and markups as desired.
(I’ve set aside some time in late August to deal with some long-standing
Lilypond-related initiatives; I’ll tack the part-combiner on to that list and
get back to you when I’ve put together a "best practices" demo. I know that
doesn’t help you now… sorry!)
Best,
Kieren.
