(rest)-collisions are there, but you need to set both stem directions
(use \stemUp and \stemDown) and horizontal-shift (use \shiftOn,
\shiftOnn, \shiftOnnn and \shiftOff).
See also input/test/collisions.ly

If you feel something is lacking in the collisions, then look at
lily/collision.cc. Don't forget to drink appropriate amounts of
alcohol before or afterwards :-)
