In the LilyPond reference manual on page 60-61 there's an example on how to 
move a text element. I've tried to use it but I couldn't make it work. I 
want to move the text "Allegretto" a bit more up and to the left:


(define (make-text-checker text) (lambda (grob) (equal? text 
(ly-get-grob-property grob 'text))))

        \outputproperty #(make-text-checker "Allegretto")
                #'extra-offset = #'(-3.5 . 5.0)

        \stemdown \partial 4; [fis8^"Allegretto" g] |


It's a bit tricky using all of these commands. It would be nice with a more 
direct (and easy to use) command, something like this:

fis8^"\movetext (3 . -1.5) Allegretto"

�where the text line "Allegretto" connected to the note fis/f sharp is moved 
according to the coordinates.
