Hmm.  It's not clear to me why lilypond can't handle this
automatically:

  g f e d( 
  \repeat { c d) e f( }
  \alternatives {
    { g) a b( a }
    { e) d c( d }
    { d) c d( e }
  }
  d c) d c

I thought that Mike's patch is implementing exactly that...

It seems that I've *completely* misunderstood the syntax we were
talking about, so thanks for this detailed example.  However, I still
don't like \fake.  Looking at your syntax about, the corresponding TeX
name would be \phantom which I do now suggest.
