Hi,

A very simple approach would be to just add some (invisble) markup to push
the staves away from each other, e.g. a space.

%%%% Example
\version "2.19.81"

<<
   \new Staff  {
     \repeat unfold 40 { c''1 }
    % Let's say I'd like to add some extra padding between these staves so
the D/A have more room, without impacting other pages.
    d'1_\markup \lower #4 " "
     \repeat unfold 100 { c''1 }
   }
\new Staff {
    \repeat unfold 40 { c''1 }
  a''1
   \repeat unfold 100 { c''1 }
}
%%%% end of snippet


Hi!

It's funny you say that ;) Because as I mentioned, I usually do indeed piggy-back on my markup when I already /have/ it in the score, and that works fine - but I was hesitant to use your technique: I didn't know if there were any serious drawbacks to using "empty-markup" trick for this purpose.

If there isn't any real major side-effects to it, then this is awesome, thank you! This is perfect.
