Okay. I don't think I understand what this Staff_collecting_engraver is doing, but yes, this looks better. CENTER doesn't make sense, that's true, but the result looked almost like what I wanted. But still, if I comment out all #'direction lines (whether or not including #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)), the Marks are positioned slightly above the TextSpanner, and the whole context takes more space. On the other hand, I don't get screens of lines saying that I make programming errors...
