Hmm?
\change Staff = "insert-appropriate-staff-name-here"
should do just what you want - move the voice containing that
instruction to the staff you specified. Have you tried it?
In other words, \change Staff doesn't move /all/ notes to another
staff - it moves the current voice context. That's what's written
here

Spacer rests (notes with name 's', the ones you mentioned) should work
all right in 2.16.0. Probably the error is somewhere else. Please
try creating a minimal example
(http://www.lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html) and if it doesn't help
you find the problem, send the minimal example to us.
hope this helps,
