Yes, it does look strange. It's the published score of Xenakis'
Herma. Guess their typesetters couldn't deal with those stems
either!
Anyway, if I was trying to set this within my knowledge of the
limitations of LilyPond, I'd set the upper stave as it is, then
use the instructions for Cross-staff stems in the Notation
Reference to join the lower notes to the upper beams.
The problem is that the stems on the upper stave need to go down and
those on the lower, up. Because of the alignment of the note heads
the stems will not meet. I've also tried tweaking the code for the
snippet of "Goyescas by Enrique Granados" but to no avail.
Best,
Peter
