Shouldn't the rests by default be placed where the voice goes in the
column - odds up, evens down - regardless of stem-direction?
When there is a difference between the stem direction and the order of the
voice, {\voiceOne \stemDown ...} then yes, it seems that Lilypond should place
the rests according to the \voiceOne instruction. I do not know if it is
practical to change the behavior, but if you send a short example and desired
behavior as a bug report, it can be fixed if practical the next time somebody
revises that part of the program.

I hadn't noticed this clause about un-pitched rests in stemNeutral
voices. Is their behaviour vs. 'neutral-direction documented anywhere?
I should have explained how I determined this. I found the brief description
of 'neutral-direction in the manual, and discovered the rest by experiment.
(Which is fine with me, because experiment is faster than reading and
understanding English for these detailed points.)
