I think its not that easy. I would use ChoirStaff as well for polyphonic 
music with only one voice per system, but as well I do songs, like the 
SATB example in de appendix, but with only one voice in the middle. It 
appeared somehow logical to me to use ChoirStaff for that two. But if we 
have it well enough documentated, we could have a VocalStaff and a 
ChoirStaff with different spacing.
