I don't have an answer to the rehearsal marks question, and I'm
interested in asking the LilyPond gurus a generalization of your
question:

Are there currently any implementation plans for idiomatic Lily input
syntax to explicitly align marks and markup explicitly with nonmusical
characters such as:

* key signatures (per Simon's question)
* time signatures
* barlines

Unless you are at the beginning of a line, rehearsal marks (i.e. texts typeset
using \mark) are by default center aligned over bar lines. If you want to
change that alignment, use a setting like

\override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT

The placement after line breaks is a bit special and is handled by the
function pointed to by the after-line-breaking property of the RehersalMark
object, which by default moves the mark 3.5 steps to the right, relative to the
left end of the stave.
