Yes.

Someone recently gave \partcombine an option to double-stem unisons
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4112
The example at the top of this follow-up might make more sense
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4198

In the next experimental version (available on Windows and macOS after
the one person currently practiced at cross-compiling is back from a
trip) you can tell LilyPond just once to double-stem unisons, and
then any notes slurred to those unisons are also kept in separate
Voices so the slurs have a place to go.

The basic mechanism of \partcombine, distributing your music into
Voices and letting the rest of LilyPond work on those, will almost 
certainly stay.  That is awkward sometimes, because we are thinking
of two voices in the input whether set as chords or double-stemmed.
