Thank you very much, but it doesn't seem to work for me.
See anything wrong with the file below? I'm using 2.7.36
Also, (I realized after I wrote the post in question) this will add padding
to *every word. While that's better than adding padding to every note, it's
not quite as good as slightly increasing the minimum permissible space
between words. Any ideas in that direction would be appreciated.

PS. Could I simply replace
\override Score.SeparationItem
with
\override Lyric.SeparationItem
(or something) and put it with the lyrics?
You can add
\context {
\Lyrics
\override SeparationItem #'padding = #10
}
to your layout block, and it will affect the output. (Obviously 10 is
way too big, but I did that to be sure it's having an effect.)
