That’s how relative works: Lily doesn’t automatically start a new 
“relative block” for new voices. IMO that’s good because it’s easier to 
find out the pitch of the last entered note than that one of the last 
note in the current voice.

No, there isn’t. There are only notes for two bars. Did you mean a bar 
*line*? Then | won’t set a bar line but complain when you place it 
somewhere and there shouldn’t be a bar line. You might want to use one 
of the \bar (for a line in mid-measure) or \partial (for a shorter 
measure) commands or override measureLength or measurePosition (dito).

This happens because the NoteHeads are aligned, even when they are 
hidden. You can try to override the NoteHead’s stem-attachment or the 
Stem’s and Beam’s extra-offset but I don’t know how to find the exact 
values.
