Unfortunately, you don't get the correct horizontal alignment of 
syllables to notes, nor can you get extender lines (see the notation 
reference "2.1.1 Manual syllable durations"), unless you set 
associatedVoice, so it's not a good solution.

I cannot really see any fundamental reason why we have this limitation. 
It seems to me that we should be able to align to the note column just 
as well as to a note in a single voice, see also
