Piano's pedals can be put in various cases at staff level. Think for example of a three-staves piano score, with third staff for *mute* (resonance) notes and Sostenuto pedal, while the second staff has dynamics and sustain pedal. Even in two-staves scores, when you don't have enough space and the left hand is silent, it could be useful to put pedals and dynamics on the right hand (upper staff). But I can list other situations as well. Then, a "staff default" seems reasonable to me. In Any case, the "voice" default appears nonsense to me. > Best would be to move the engraver as deserved.
