The whole point of using explicit rhythms with lyrics is to position them
when they should _not_ be aligned with the rhythm of notes. The syllables
should be positioned according the the rhythm values attached to them.
This may or may not coincide with a note at that point.
The thing we are lacking is the ability to self-align them on that point
with either center or left alignment, or better, any real alignment.
