One could enforce consistent spacing by doing (add \showstruts)
\underbrace{x + y + z}_{\topstrut\mtext{my text here}}
but it would perhaps make more sense to be able to do
\underbrace[toptext=...,bottomtext=...]{x + y + z}
with some mechanism that do not abuse the limits mechanism, or even to
have some very general annotation mechanism,
\mathannotation[toptext=...,bottomtext=...]{\underbrace{x + y + z}}
So, can we please see some real examples of how this is supposed to be
used? Best with some explanations on how and why the text below should
be raised/lowered.
