Please note that LilyPond currently tries to do something clever, namely 
incorporating standard typesetting practice on how to typeset time and 
key signatures at a bar line. This typesetting practice is specified in 
the break-align-orders property of the BreakAlignment object, see 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/internals/breakalignment#BreakAlignment

What you want to do is to break/extend these rules for a specific 
situation. The solution you propose is to make LilyPond much less clever 
which makes it easier to do a workaround for these few special 
situations but makes life much harder in all standard situations where 
you then would require the user to remember in which order to place things.
