Now that we recently have renamed some properties and predefined macros
in 2.11.37 and coming 2.11.38, in order to get a more unified naming,
maybe it's time to bring up my old proposal.
However, you are right that there is no \center markup command, so there's
an error in the documentation.

Dear All,
I'm sorry if this arrives twice. My Gmail is behaving a bit strangely
today. This one is improved a bit from the previous one.

I have already answered that question in my previous email:
Yes you did, thanks. I'm sorry. I just couldn't believe that scheme
could create these new names "by itself". :-)

One thing though ... about the document section you mentioned. It
recommends using make-center-markup. I wonder if that should be
make-center-align-markup? The latter works as well as make-line-markup
and make-column-markup but the make-center-markup doesn't (at least if
used in the example code I posted earlier).
Another thing: I wonder why \right-align is implemented as it is, i.e.
no support for a list of markups. If I create a \column or use
\center-align with multiple strings or markups the texts are printed
"with line feeds". If I use \right-align instead the texts are set on
one line on top of each other. I have to use baseline-skip to get them
properly printed. Is this behaviour needed by some other function or
could it be modified to match \center-align?
Anyway, below you can find the code I cooked up if someone is
interested in it. It was pretty straightforward to use the
\center-align as a template. Thanks again, Mats and Bert.
