correctly, the earlier requests were for a curved symbol, something
like a tie pointing downwards, whereas your example shows a straight
line. I think you can find some workarounds in the mailing list archives
using inline LaTeX code. For an ordinary underscore as in the example
you show, you could simply use "tre\\_es".
If there happens to be any symbol in the LilyPond Feta font that could
be useful (see
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/The-Feta-font.html#The-Feta-font) then it's easy to access in the lyrics by just inserting a \markup{...}
command.

There's a typesetting convention for lyrics that when there are what look like two syllables on a note but it's really only one because one is elided, you join the syllables with a sort of a tie underneath them. You can see how Encore does this on the bottom score of the first page of this file.

Is there a way to make Lilypond do this?
If so, can it be documented and indexed under "elision", or "Lyrics, elision"?
One of my group members believes strongly that this is the *right
thing to do*, so I might do it if it were easy, but they never did
stuff like that in the 16th century, so I might just not bother
anyway.
