Glad I could help

If the calculation is correct, it will work with _all_ staff-sizes.

Actually, the function is an abstract of a larger one, trying to achieve
a) combination and alignment of various markups and/or \mark\default
without disturbing a markFormatter.
b) the possibility to stack the markups vertical or horizontal.
c) different marks at line-end and line-begin with individual alignment.

It was the attempt to get an alternative to Neil's multi-mark-engraver
http://old.nabble.com/Nice-workaround-for-simultaneous-rehearsal-marks-%E2%80%93-thanks-Neil!-td32212763.html
without the necessity to rearrange engravers.

Well, in the end I puzzled myself by trying to deal with too many variables.

Until now I couldn't motivate myself to clean up/improve the code to
get a really working function.
Perhaps I should return to it. ;)
