Yes. That is cool. Originally I wanted the repeat thing to be a
\property, but that would make playback difficult.

Do you also have something for lilypond-regtest?

I think an alignment is not per se something that belong to Text_item,
so the solution has to be more generic. Either you have to make a
scheme element property that invokes a positioning routine, or you
have to use a two-object approach. Scripts are now done in this
two-object approach. The Staff_side_element takes care of vertical
alignment, and the Script only prints a symbol. The Script attaches
to the Staff_side_element.
I favor the first approach over the second, but since there are no
positioning functions done via guile at present, this might be a trite
difficult.
