Following the course of the discussion from last year, I see that it
was recommended to move the engraver due to a bug which had been
reported in March 2007; this caused a strange effect with repeat
barlines when using Lyrics within a StaffGroup. Since this bug has
been fixed, I think it's advisable to follow the guidelines in the
docs, i.e. move the Separating_line_group_engraver to the Lyrics
context if necessary.
I haven't really studied what's going on in the engraver, but judging
how it's used within the default contexts, I think it's a good idea to
restrict its use to bottom-level or staff-level contexts.

> %% the next three instructions keep the lyrics between the bar lines
> \context {

> \consists "Bar_engraver"
> \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t
This line is redundant (as is the similar override in \global), since
the Score override above covers this (though I can see why it was
originally included, since in 2.10.33 there seems to be a bug whereby
the Score override doesn't descend to the Lyrics context.
I'll make these suggested changes to the snippets shortly.

Neil
