Re: Piano staff, single staff polyphony and lyrics

PNG image attached.  This shows the default behavior when the slur is 
specifically positioned on the stem side, then there's a manually 
positioned slur showing more what it ought to look like, and finally 
another slur showing the default behavior when there are more than two 
notes being slurred together (this already looks good IMO, and the 
default for when there are only two notes ought to look more like this. 
 Here's the code:

\version "2.11.61"

\relative c' {
% default, when slur is forced to stem side
  c^( d)
% positioned manually
  \once \override Slur #'positions = #'(0.8 . 1.2)
  c4^( e)
% default positioning if there are three or more.
  c^( d e2 f)
}
