I thought I could help, but apparently my scheme-fu isn't good enough
for this. I first thought I could beat \Balloon_engraver into doing what you need, but there's scant information on it, and I don't know how to
change the size of the box it creates.

Then I thought I could just use markup and extra-offset to move the box
where it needed to be, but again, I lack the understanding of how
extra-offset works to be able to use it.

Perhaps, however, with those two suggestion you, or someone else may be
able to get the results you need.

James,

thanks for reply. I am unexperienced with scheme functions. But I'm curious too. Could you send me your function allowing me to see, how it could be done?

Helge
This may work for you as well:
\version "2.12.3"

notHead = {
   \once \override Stem #'stencil = ##f
   \once \override Beam #'stencil = ##f
}

{
   \clef bass
   \time 2/4
   <d h>8 r <c c'> <<
      {r}\new Voice \with { \consists "Balloon_engraver" } {
         \balloonLengthOff
         \override BalloonTextItem #'padding = #'2.0
         s16 \notHead < fis-\balloonText #'(0 . 0) \markup { "" } >
      }
   >>
}
