I'm probably having some subtlety wrong. The following code creates the 
attached image.
%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.21.0"

{ << R1 { s2. s4^"some markup" } >> }

{ << { \oneVoice R1 } \\ { s2. s4^"some markup" } >> }
%%%%%%%%%%%

The lower akkolade is what I want this to look like while the upper akkolade adds a staff 
I don't wish to see. Adding "RemoveEmptyStaves" should not be required (and may 
or may not create more unwanted side effects in that I may not wish for other staves to 
be removed).

As I said I probably am overlooking something since Alexander Kobel made the 
very same suggestion off list.

Sorry that I didn't mention this: This works if the context is "rich" enough to guarantee that everything will be fit into a single staff. Wrap eath << >> into a \new Staff, then it should work.

Best
Lukas
