Title: Two crossing voices: noteheads move to the right

Message:
If I write two voices in one line, voice 1/2 gets stems up/down. Fine.

If the two voices cross (i.e., voice 2 is above voice 1), then the second voice is moved to the right by a notehead's width plus an epsilon such that the two stems are next to each other. That is complicated to read and very space consuming if the two voices cross over a longer period of time.

I would prefer that voice 1 is moved by one epsilon to the right such that the note heads are (nearly) vertically aligned. How can I do that?

ascii-art (use monospaced font):
