Looks like a limitation. I forget why we do this, internally. In export terms, I think all these text events still have to get tacked onto some other kind of event, so we need a way to know which event to attach it to. I'm pretty sure that used to be true anyway. Heikki has taken my LilyPond export improvements to the next level and beyond, and I haven't looked at any of this in years, because I don't have to. It's in great hands now. I still can't get over how elegantly he solved all the problems I thought could never be solved, and pretty much single-handedly transformed this into something that almost always produces a usable result without any hand hacking. It doesn't look like this problem of yours is in any kind of usable state at the moment though. It's easy to draw two chords over a whole rest by moving the second chord with the micro-positioning feature. But this doesn't export. You wind up with the two letters stacked on top of each other, over the rest. LilyPond has micro-positioning too, but I can't imagine how we'd translate whatever coordinates we use into something that would scale onto LilyPond's slightly different and usually much better rendering of the same passage. I don't think we make use of it at all, and it doesn't appear that we do. Anyway, Heikki is probably your man for elaboration on all of this. I'm just making noise to hear my fingers click, I think. -- D.
