Ah, OK. Looking at the examples he's provided I see that that's exactly
what he wants.

I hadn't thought to look at the markup for the text. Doing that I see that
it's a vertically centered column. So using your tips, I get the following
which I think is a step in the right direction:
\new TabStaff
\with
{
tablatureFormat = #fret-letter-tablature-format
\override TabNoteHead #'whiteout = ##f
}
{
\override TabNoteHead #'font-shape = #'italic
\override TabNoteHead #'stencil = #(lambda (grob)
(grob-interpret-markup grob (markup->string (ly:grob-property grob
'text))))
e' f' fis' g' gis' a' ais' b' c'' cis'' d'' dis'' e'' f'' fis'' g'' gis''
}
(@Choan: is this what you have in mind?)
