That in fact is what I do in my own engraving. It works pretty well; not
perfectly because the spacing and fonts aren't the same as would be
produced by the ChordNames context. Last time I discussed this suggestion
on the list, I suggested that the code for \chordtext could well be
derived from the lyrics code. But this approach isn't discoverable for a
user who only reads the instructions.
