Some objects have alignment procedures of their own, which cancel out
any effects of alignments applied to their markup arguments as a
whole. For example, the @internalsref{RehearsalMark} is horizontally
centered, so using @code{\mark \markup @{ \left-align .. @}} has no
effect. Similarly, whole texts over notes cannot be moved vertically
with @code{\raise}. For moving and aligning complete objects, grob
properties should be used.

Yes - I'm not sure what is the best way to go about. Documenting all
of them may lead to duplication and inconsistencies. What do you think?
