I was wondering what kind of contexts of control I have over \markup stuff 
outside \score stuff. Specifically, this is what I would like to accomplish.

\version "2.10.25"
\score {
    \new Voice \relative c'' {
        g4 g g a |
        c b a g |
        e d e g |
        e1
    }
}
\markup {
    \column {
        \italic "segue to"
        "Something Else"
    }
}

Now, it would be nicer for the segue markup to be right-aligned to the page, so 
I tried changing the markup to this:

\markup {
    \column {
        \right-align \italic "segue to"
        \right-align "Something Else"
    }
}

But the result was unexpected:

|----|----|----|----|
to
se

In short (pardon the pun), it was right-aligned against its own origin. (Or 
something like that.)

I would like to achieve something like this:

|----|----|----|----|
       segue to
       Something Else

Now I know that you can probably use markup--something like \translate or 
\translate-scaled, or even an \override of the extra-offset property to achieve 
something like this. But what if the pages had different sizes? Then the markup 
wouldn't be the flush right for all the pages.

I guess my real question is, is there a some context where I can position 
markup outside a score relative to the page itself?

Thanks in advance.
