% I don't have an engraving reference to consult (yet), but I have a
% hymnal here with some measures that look better than Lilypond's
% default. I hope the experts will weigh in on whether there is
% material here for a ticket or two.
%
% 1. All voices have a fermata to be semantically correct.
% In a real score, I would have used partcombine but I've left
% it out for simplicity. Regardless, the voices in unison in
% the top staff would not be combined. Should Lilypond notice
% this situation and combine and center one fermata over them?
%
% 2. The notes in the lower staff are centered with respect
% to the notes in the upper staff.
