The piece I am setting has a lot of cross-staff beams, and sometimes
Lilypond does not allow enough space between the staves for a decent-
looking beam. In those cases I would like to force a greater space
between the 2 staves just for that particular printed line of music.
I do not wish to alter the minimum staff spacing globally. But the
particular points where extra spacing is needed may not occur at the
beginning of a line, and of course the spacing of the whole line must
be changed.
Can this be done?

Hi David,
(not sure what version you are on but this will change the space for the
piano)
Yes. Simply use this code to taste:
\new PianoStaff \with {
\override StaffGrouper.staff-staff-spacing = #'(
(basic-distance . 0)
(padding . 0))
}
