Unfortunately, this isn't possible with the current autobeaming mechanism,
which only looks at one note at a time and checks if it's on a beat where
the beam should be started or ended. To do what you want, it would have
to also look at future notes to decide on the beam break.

You are lucky, that there's already a predefined markup to typeset
fermatas, so you can do
c^\markup{ \fermataMarkup followed by some text }
If you want to do the same with a coda sign, for example, you can do
codaMarkup = \markup { \musicglyph #scripts.coda }
and then use it either standalone

I don't understand, why the \hspace #0 influences the raise
As I understand it, the \hspace defines the height of the entire

This section in the docs is rather confusing. I hope to try
to clarify it shortly.
The automatic behaviour should beam 16th notes in groups of

on half-note beats, ie on

Hi Mats,
\override DynamicLineSpanner #'Y-extent = #'(-1 . 1)
\override DynamicText #'Y-offset = #0
As far as I can see (and understand), this gives baseline alignment.
Similar tricks can be used to turn off top/bottom alignment
of text scripts:

Hi Mats (et al.),
If you want it also for dynamics that are separated by some notes
so that they don't belong to the same DynamicLineSpanner, then
you can use exactly the same trick. I just increased the default
value of the staff-padding and kept the default center alignment
of each
