Thanks Simon, that's a great tool.
I changed the function just a bit so that the stems of the eighth notes in
the lower voices aren't so long:
%%%%
dummy =
#(define-music-function (mus) (ly:music?)
#{
\override NoteColumn.ignore-collision = ##t
\voiceTwo
\once \omit Stem
\once \omit Flag
$mus
\revert NoteColumn.ignore-collision
\voiceOne
#})
%%%%
