Especially if you are most interested in replicating a known source, another workaround that you may try is to manually write the three symbols as one markup line, like so:

The attached example has simultaneously a text mark, tempo mark, and section label.

\version "2.24.0"

music = \fixed c' {
   \textMark \markup \small \italic "Text Mark"
   d1
   \repeat unfold 4 { c4 d e f }
}

dynamics = {
   \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t
   <>\tempo 4 = 80
   \after 4*3 \tempo "Tempo Mark"
   \skip \music
}

up = {
   \after 1*2 \sectionLabel "Section Label"
   \music
}

\score {
   <<
     \up
     \new Dynamics \dynamics
   >>
}

Is there a way to get Lilypond to place them next to each other horizontally, rather than stacking them vertically, to match the original score?  Ideally, this would obey `outside-staff-priority`. (Yes, there is: by manually tweaking the anchors for the various marks, till they end up approximately where I want them; see below.  I'm hoping there's a cleaner option available.)
