how to automatically left-align rehearsal marks at the beginning of a li

Subject: how to automatically left-align rehearsal marks at the beginning of a line

Hello,

I occasionally have a rehearsal mark fall on the first measure of a line, and I have to manually make it left-aligned so it will print.  (I use small margins.)  However, then I have more manual work if the music layout changes enough that the rehearsal mark is no longer on the first measure of the line.  I typically wait until the very end to do manual layout tweaks to minimize issues like this, but it would be nice not to have to do them at all.

Here's a snippet which shows the problem in an extreme way:

\relative c'' {
  c1 \mark \markup "this should be left aligned" | \break c1
}

Is there a setting somewhere for this?  

Note: I don't want all rehearsal marks left-aligned - just the ones that happen to fall at the beginning of a line.

The same question could be asked about rehearsal marks that are at the end of a line.  Although the importance is much lower since AFAIK manual tweaking is usually necessary to even get a rehearsal mark at the end of a line.

Thanks for your help!
