I think you mean me, David Nalesnik.

That's Mike Solomon in another thread, who was passing along a snippet
from the LSR.  (In the near future, I'll be updating the LSR with the
new code you're now using.)  But I can certainly answer your questions
here!

Well, it's possible to give lyric syllables durations, so they aren't
tied to the note values in the line you're attaching the lyrics to.
This question came up in conjunction with analysis symbols in that
other thread, so I'll just point you to a relevant message.  My reply
to the earlier question also includes a link to the Notation Reference
about ways to align lyrics.
