I want equal vertical spacing of lines. Here is a small snippet that
compares `\column` with `\figures`. I want the spacing of the former
to be available for the latter.
```
\figures {
\override BassFigureAlignment.padding = 1
<b a g> <b b g>
}
\markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 2) {
\column { b a g }
\column { b b g }
}
}
```
