We have http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2809.  I'd like 
to make a start on this, but don't want to waste my time if I create what I 
think is a decent stab but no-one else agrees.  My suggestion is that my 
final code will be:

\new Score {
  <<
    \new ChoirStaff \with {
      \override StaffGrouper.staffgroup-staff-spacing.basic-distance = #15
    }
    <<
      \new Staff {
        \new Voice = "music" {
          c'1 c' c'2 c'
        }
      }
      \new Lyrics \with { \override 
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.padding = #2
                          \override 
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-unrelatedstaff-spacing.padding = #2 }
      \lyricsto "music" {
        Some text as lyrics
      }
      \new Staff {
        \clef bass e'1 f e2 d
      }
    >>
    \new PianoStaff \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing 
= #'(
                                  (basic-distance . 0)
                                  (padding . 1))
    }
    <<
      \new Staff {
        c''1 c'' c''2 c''
      }
      \new Staff {
        \clef bass e1 f e2 d
      }
    >>
  >>
}

Which will be built up from the vocal part, and then adjusting the spacing 
to the lyrics, adding the piano part and then pushing this further away and 
closing up the piano staves.

Does this seem like an acceptable approach for the LM?
