Well, I didn't expect such success :)

Attached is a revised version:

- Stanza numbers now properly avoid the respaced lyric words
  just like they avoid lyric words by default (the problem was
  a consequence of what I said about this snippet breaking
  assumptions LilyPond makes; in this case it can be arranged),

- There is a \doReserveSpace command doing what Kieren requested,

- #(ly:set-option 'compile-scheme-code) is commented out for
  the time being,

- Added some comments.

If this looks fine to you, I'll upload it to LSR.

Best,
Jean
