Ops, sorry for my disinformation.

But, beside that, the thing is: if I use \new Voice in that example,
LilyPond thinks it's part of a new Staff. Instead, I want to just
create a new voice, which should be then interpreted as
belonging to both (Staff)Voice and TabVoice in the StaffGroup of \score
block.
Is this possible?

Here's a minimal example:


\version "2.13.11"

guitar = \relative c' {
  
  % Monophony
  c4 d e f |
  
  %% Temporary polyphony
  <<
    {
      \voiceOne
      c4 d e f |
    }
    \new Voice {
      \voiceTwo
      c,1 | % TODO: this is not printed in TabStaff, just in a new Staff
    }
  >>
  
  % Back to monophony
  \oneVoice
  c'4 d e f |
  
}

\score {
  \new StaffGroup <<
    \new Staff <<
      \clef "G_8"
      \guitar
      >>
    \new TabStaff <<
      \guitar
    >>
  >>
}
