Comment #6 on issue 1188 by perpeduumimmobile: Inconsistent line spacing in lyric mode
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1188IIUC, minimum-distance is measured in staff-space units, so the "minimum line-height" specified it defines is not changed with different font-sizes. IMHO, it's not The Real Thing (tm), but good enough for almost all common needs (postponed?). At least it's not as bad as the need to manually scale staff-space /and/ font-size when resizing staves...
Besides, the bounding box not going over the theoretically maximal character height has it's benefits for fitting the Lyrics tight to the staff (very important for compressed French scores). Note that Lyrics can be above or below the staff, so both directions matter. Not sure whether Lyrics have real skylines, though, or just a simple rectangle per line.
