see below. it's very cumbersome, but not impossible. my question now
is, should i go ahead and use this method in the dozens of spots in
this score where i need it, or will i regret it later when i upgrade
my lily and it no longer works, or when there's a much simpler way of
doing it?
according to han-wen:

han-wen> extra-offset will stay - but perhaps I'll change the name
if i can, i'd like to go ahead with working on this today, but should
i wait for either of the above reasons?
