I actually quite often superimpose an empty ossia measure with an EPS graphic, since ossias are still single measures only, and I often need several measures.

Has anyone got a works-every-time, step-by-step, foolproof ossia system (including what *not* to do) that they could share? Because they are so frustrating for me to work with, sometimes I just give up and use staff styles to create ossias, and deal with spacing issues later.
One thing that I can't explain is why on earth one should have to add a hidden staff as source for the ossia. Why doesn't the ossia tool create an empty measure that one could fill in, rather than a copy of the source measure? The very definition of the ossia is that it's a variant, so it makes no sense at all to have the same music as in the source.
The one mistake to avoid, though, seems to be attaching the ossia to the source staff, because when you do hide the source staff, the ossia gets hidden with it.
