Answering to myself, but still I'd appreciate to read the rationale for
the alternative behaviour: The "workaround" is to move the "\lirycsto"
and "\new FiguredBass" from the simultaneous grouping with the "Basse"
voice over to the simultaneous grouping with the "\upper" and "\lower"
variables.
[See previous post for the complete example.]

At first, I would think it logical to have the first alternative produce
the same result as the second.
Or are there examples where it wouldn't be desirable?
