I like that very much, James, thanks!  A question for Reinhold,
though: do I
gather correctly that \partcombine is applied to a Staff, and turns
the
combining mechanism on, while \partcombineAutomatic is applied to a
single
Voice?  That being so, does it "turn off" a previous
\partcombineApart, e.g.?

I would say that \partcombine is a function that applies to two music
expressions.
It creates Voices as necessary for the combined music.
\partcombineAutomatic applies to the combined music at a given musical
moment, and applies to both of the arguments to \partcombine at that
time.

The reason I would not say that \partcombine applies to a staff is that
it doesn't set anything special for the Staff.  It converts two separate
music expressions into a set of music expressions necessary to support
the appropriate combined Voices.
