I asked my client about it and told her what you'd said (see my reply to Christopher). I'm not well experienced in the rules of scoring liturgical music, and certainly not the Catholic Mass, so your help was very welcome. Out of interest, would word extensions be correct if you wanted to pinpoint words to certain notes in an operatic cadenza? I've always done that without any queries.
