That's basically the approach taken by Joe for spacing staves: Place the center lines minimum-spacing apart, except if the skylines would (almost?) overlap (including a padding). In the latter case add space until no overlap occurs. Of course, when stretching is enabled, things are a little more involved. I just don't know how Joe aligns lyrics, in particular, whether only the extents are used or whether the baseline is used like the center line for staves. Without looking at the code, I would say the basic functionality is there, it just needs to be adjusted for and/or extended to the lyrics context, too.
