Just a quick question -- I'm making a glissando that goes across several
unstemmed noteheads; I need to move any rhythmic dots down, so that the
glissando doesn't obscure them. What's the proper override for this?

\dotsDown just directs dots below the staff line while \voiceTwo (or
\voiceFour) directs all items down (stems, dots, slurs, ties, phrasing
slurs, dynamics, text spanners and tuplet brackets,…)  - it's up to you to
decide what you really want.

maybe you should provide a small example of what you are trying to do and
where there are problems - that makes it easier to find solutions!
