Agreement.  
There are issues 1161, 1208, and 1309 about Lyrics spacing, but none really
sets a clear goal of how the spacing for lyrics /should/ be setup as default.

I started a lyrics template and shortcuts, but do not use lyrics myself, so I 
am wandering a bit aimlessly when I work on it.

Issue 1442 describes relatively minor bugs that I ran into, in the sense of
clearly unintended behavior of the spacing engine.
