As a workaround, perhaps you can use a text spanner, this should align each pair of Ped and * vertically. See input/test/text-spanner.ly for ideas. If you want all Ped and * markings to be on the same vertical position, then you can create them in a Lyrics context, like << \new PianoStaff << ... >> \new Lyrics \lyricmode { \markup {...}2.. \markup {...}8 | ... } >> where the {...}s are substituted for something that creates Ped and * markings. I don't know about the conventions for pedal markings. Do you have any examples of hand-engraved scores, that show clearly that all pedal markings below one system should be vertically aligned?
