As DC pointed out, this has not changed in the default behaviour of
Finale recently. His solution seems to be better than mine.
If you don't have TG Tools, then you can respace JUST the measures
with melismas after turning off collisions with lyrics. I do this
with chord symbols a lot, as TG Tools doesn't have this capability
with chords, only with lyrics.

I'm stuck working with Finale 2003, and am in the midst of doing a
whole bunch of editions for my viol consort with lyrics. My annoyance
is the whole issue with spacing of melismas -- i.e., if there's a run
of 16ths, if the first has a syllable on it, the full space for the
syllable is allocated to the first 16th, even though the 16ths should
be spaced normally, because it's a melisma.
Is that fixed in current Finale versions? If so, that alone would
save me anough time to justify the upgrade!
