Thanks a lot, Trevor.

I don't usually use \addlyrics to but the same happens with \lyricmode, too.

It would also be nice to be able to adjust the vertical lyrics spacing
(e.g. with minimum-Y-extent) separately for each system. That cannot
be done with minimum-Y-extent, though. Sometimes I've used dummy lyric
lines with \markup { "" } where I want to add some more space. That
cannot be used for fine tuning, though. :-)
