It does quote lyrics for me.
(It starts an empty staff but RemoveEmptyStaves cleans that up.)
A = \lyricmode{la di da di }
\addQuote "lyric" \A
<< \new Staff \new Voice = "a" {c'4 d' e' f'}
\new Lyrics \lyricmode { \lyricsto "a" \quoteDuring "lyric" \skip 1 } >>

I don't think LilyPond remembers which items came from quoteDuring at the stage
when removeEmptyStaves happens, but you can tell her for what periods in time
she should consider some notes, or lyrics, unworthy of their own staff, or
