Yes, ok.

Look at mutopia/Coriolan, same problem there. Currently, it can only
be hacked a bit, and you can't get it quite right without destroying
the "idea" of the music.
While you normally play from the combined part, each instrument has its
own notes. To save space, and perhaps to provide some extra context,
the two parts are usually combined on one staff. But you want to enter
both parts separately (ie, when they both play the same notes, you want
to enter them in both parts, but Lily should only display them once).
This is all quite hairy. Hopefully we can get this right (or better)
during 1.5 or so.
Greetings,
Jan.
