That doesn't explain it. If the text strings had their baselines at a
fixed position relative to the staff then the letters would align. Do you
mean instead that the bounding boxes are placed at a fixed distance from
the staff?

Is there any way to make things expand so that there is room for the text?
The same approach might help answer question 1 as well.

I have read that section (section 5.3.2 in the Lilypond 2.4.6 manual).
It's very short and contains nothing about any workarounds. It implies
that KeyCancellation and KeySignature objects have something to do with
this, and the new-accidentals and old-accidentals properties seem to be
relevant. But I can't figure out how to get at these things. The
following \applyoutput routine:
#(define (show-stuff grob origin current)
(display grob)
(newline)
)
doesn't even show anything for the key change! (Or for the notes, for
that matter.) What am I missing?
