Cross staff stems for beamed notes

I need to add cross staff stems and used the approach found in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/snippets/staff-notation.html#staff-notation-cross-staff-stems Unfortunately this doesn't give the expected result for eighth notes. - If the stem points down, cross staff is not working -

Suppose in a \markup block where I'm writing some text, I want to say "blah blah at rehearsal A" where "A" is formatted with the same font and style (maybe using the current font size? but I can deal with that probably) as it is in the score. How can I get that? For example, enhancing this MWE:
