No, I don't mean that.  I mean the situation where Lilypond is only
able to put a single system on a page (due to lack of vertical space),
and if this is the case, I want lilypond to insert empty staves back
to get a vertically well filled page.

Maybe my option should be rather a list to handle the concern Keith
has mentioned (overfull pages due to a very large number of staves).
For example, it could be

  remove-empty-single-system = #'("celesta" "harp")

so that the staves called `celesta' and `harp' get removed even if all
other systems would be added to fill a single system.
