Ok, that clarifies it.

I want the b first because I want the reference point of the chord being
the b as I'm appending a markup to it that is vertically aligned to
another markup that's appended to another note (b' in this case but it
could be anything else)

That gives me the stem back but it's length is as if the b' were there
as well (i.e. it is too long).
I could write { \once \override Stem.length = #5.5 <\hide b' f'> } but
that would require me manually determinating the proper length wherever
I'm using this construct.
Is there an automatic way?
Kind regards,
Michael
