It certainly answers a question that has popped up in the mailing list
a number of times, over the years. However, beware that I had problems
to even copy the symbol from the email to my editor (Emacs), so others
may experience the same problem even if the solution is in the manual.
Isn't it strange that there isn't any relevant symbol defined in Unicode
that
can be used directly, without having to move it around.

If this is something common in vocal music, might it be worth adding
to the manual? (recall that I don't do vocal music; to make changes I
need exact instructions)

Hello, all --
I've seen a couple of inquiries about this issue on the list in the
past...
Just ran into this problem myself, and solved it to my satisfaction
(see Lilycode, below, and attached PNG).
Hope this helps someone else!
Best regards,
Kieren.
