The most precise notation would be a separate staff for the
soloist ... it would leave no question. That seems a marketable
offering to a client.

Really? So how do you differentiate passages that are to be sung

In orchestral work, "gli altri" or "the rest" = "everyone but the
soloist," which is not the same as "tutti." My client doesn't seem
to think "the rest" is clear enough, but I still need a good way
of distinguishing "everybody but the soloist" from "everyone
including the soloist."

"All others" and put in rests for the soloist. I would not do
this unless the situation is crystal clear; otherwise a separate
staff for the soloist in indicated.
