I used a wrong term, sorry. However It would be nice to be able to
make such a setting inside the \lyricmode (and the \lyricsto would
interpret it correctly). As I said earlier I can use it but only if
the music and lyrics start at the beginning of the piece.

Yes, he did I must admit. After an hour of tinkering I finally found a
way. :-) I wouldn't say it's very convenient, though. The solution I
came up with requires additional voices and lyrics. I thought that If
I want to use different minYextents for different parts of lyrics I
would have to add the parts separately and attach them to different
voices.
Here I have a melody (very boring, though :-)), which is divided on
two lines with a \break. Then I'd like to use different spacing
between the staff and the lyrics on different lines / systems. If the
world was perfect I could just use: music = (stuff removed) { c2 c c
\break c c .... }, and: words = \lyricmode { Tra la la
\someMagicTrickForSpacing Fa la .... }.
Sometimes I've used fixed-alignment-extra-space to make the systems
bigger. Then I've used extra-offset to move the lyrics up and down.
I'm still a bit ashamed of doing it. :-)
