Yes, I know. Unfortunately, that is exactly the first use-case of figured bass 
that I was talking about: Creating a staff-like FiguredBass context, which has 
the problem that the figures will not be close to the notes, but aligned 
completely independent of the notes. I.e. all bass figures are vertically 
aligned at the same horizontal line, which is shifted up to avoid the skyline 
of the notes. 

I cannot use that mode, as I have several cases where this would put the 
figures way too far away from some notes (because one note in a line has a 
very high skyline, so all figures will be places that high, even though just 
that one figure on that note with the high skyline should be).

So, what I need is really the figures inside the staff as described in the 
second example of:
