The alignment is a completely different matter. A RehearsalMark can
be aligned to the left, center, or right, or some other value. If i
ever have the time to finish rewriting alignment code, it will be
possible to provide even more advanced options. And one can write a
completely custom function, too.
The question is where the _attachment point_ ("anchor") should be.
You may be interested to read what's linked in
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3273 to get a
better understanding of alignments.
...actually, trying various alignments for RehearsalMarks makes it
clear that the change in behaviour is needed: currently the alignments
don't make much sense. See attachment.
