Comment #8 on issue 1410 by address@hidden: Rest in lower voice should  
be placed above notes in in upper if voices are crossed.

Probably fixed to what it should be.

The original example, first line, uses the implicit voicing shorthand for
\new Staff << {\voiceOne c4 c}  {\voiceTwo r8 c'' r c''} >>
so the rests in voiceTwo still print below the notes in voice One.

The explicit Rest #'direction, in the second line of the example, is now  
honored.

Also, the natural way to set this: << {\stemDown r8 c'' r c''} \\ {\stemUp  
c4 c} >>
now works as expected, putting the voiceOne rests above the voiceTwo notes.

For backward compatibility with the trick from snippet #732, if the Rest  
#'direction is not set, LilyPond continues to check the 'stem direction' of  
the rest.
