Thank you!
About that snippet (which I use all the time, whether I need it or
not): I recently discovered that it doesn't work with
\context{\RemoveEmptyStaffContext}. For some reason, the following
does work and gives the same effect as
\context{\RemoveEmptyStaffContext}:
\context {
%% Almost, but not quite, like RemoveEmptyStaffContext
\Staff
% \remove "Axis_group_engraver"
\consists "Hara_kiri_engraver"
\override Beam #'auto-knee-gap = #'()
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-empty = ##t
}
...just in case anyone was seeing the same problem.
(I'm still of the opinion that rest merging should be built-in and
default behaviour, and I will be until someone shows me a
hand-engraved counterexample.)

Re: merging simultaneous rests from two voices
The easiest way is to position the rests by writing a note followed by \rest. This allows you to position both rests in the same place. See Rests in the manual.
