In the following example : \version "2.17.9"
<< \relative c' { g a' a r4 a1 } \addlyrics { u u u u } \relative c''' { r2 r32 d8.. r4 R1 } >> I'm not convinced that the lower voice should slice through the lyrics. I'm typesetting a choral works and it looks, while sightreading, that the u in the higher voice is a sort of annotation for the lower voice (the spacing is even tighter in my real example). What does real literature do? Does this type of typesetting ever happen? I think it'd be worth it to horizontally pad skylines in Lyric contexts so that this sort of snug fitting doesn't happen.
