One more question on this issue:
The commands \fatText and \emptyText have no effect on either
s1*0^\markup {whatever}
R1*4
or
R1*4^\markup {whatever}
How can I automatically apply the width of the markup string to the width
of the multi-rest bar?

I don't think you understood Han-Wen's answer. Everything will work
fine if you do
\override MultiMeasureRestText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.0)
or (preferably)
\override MultiMeasureRestText #'padding = #2.0
As you can read in section 8.2.1, texts attached to multi
measure rests are handled by MultiMeasureRestText layout
objects in contrast to texts attached to normal notes, which
are handled by TextScript layout objects.
The comment on using a skip note are only relevant if you want
to place something at the beginning of the bar instead of in
the middle (which is where the multimeasure rest is placed).

R1*4^\markup
to control markup alignment on a multirest, I figured it was not an
unknown bug. But it sounds like something I should submit, though, so
I'll send it. Sorry about any confusion.
