AFAIK you need to add a corresponding skip graces to _every voice_ in
_every staff_.
I wish lilypond could be changed, so this wouldn't be necessary.
It is a *pain* when there are lots of grace notes, and 3 or more voices.
Especially when two voices have grace notes of different lengths but in
the same place.
And sometimes no tricks work, for example if the very first note has a
grace note. Adding a silent bar first is a workaround, but not what I want.
A grace note is supposed to steal some time from the note it is
attached to, so it is not supposed to change the timing at all.
Consider this:
A piece for piano and violin. So there are 3 voices. I want to be
able to print separate scores as well as a combined sheet, so
timing changes and repeats goes into every voice. (Not necessary for the
combined works, but needed so I can print just one voice too.)
Every grace note will then need grace skips in the other voices,
unless the others happens to have a grace note of the same length too.
The work with grace notes is tripled. It is so easy to miss a grace skip
somewhere, and then timing changes print twice, or other ugly, wrong
oddities appear.
It'd be so much better if this simply wasn't necessary.
