But not where \oldaddlyrics was used, surely?

The manual conversion I've been doing when convert-ly insists on using
the broken \oldaddlyrics (which is clearly a bug, since Hanwenn states
that it won't be fixed) is:

    <<
        \oldaddlyrics
        \context Staff="default"
        {
            \voicedefault 
        }
        \context Lyrics="default" 
        <<
          { \wordsdefaultVA }
        >>
    >>

to:

    <<
        \context Staff="default"
        {
            \voicedefault 
        }
        \addlyrics  { \wordsdefaultVA }
    >>

This is pretty straightforward, and could be scripted for the
real-world case, although maybe not by convert-ly for the completely
general case.   Is there some reason why this isn't as good as the
equivalent \lyricsto solution?
