There's quite a bit going on in this score. The pinch point is in measure 9, where beamed quarter-notes switch staves. I have both approaches tagged, and the same music is typeset using either approach. The score is first typeset with a hidden raised note, which does the job. Then it's typeset with a raised "XXX" markup. The markup goes into the upper staff without affecting distance.
