Probably, but I have no idea how this works. I simply asked, because the 
regtest clearly stated something that was not true with the current version, 
so either lilypond or that comment should be changed...

Also, I have tried copying the settings from RehearsalMark and from BarNumber 
to MetronomeMark, but the following grob definition (where I copied 
break-align-symbols, X-offset and self-alignment-X, and also added the 
break-alignable-interface and the self-alignment-interface) does not make any 
difference:
    (MetronomeMark
     . (
        (stencil . ,ly:text-interface::print)
        (Y-offset . ,ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side)
        (direction . ,UP)
        (padding . 0.8)
        (side-axis . ,Y)
        (extra-spacing-width . (+inf.0 . -inf.0))
        (outside-staff-priority . 1000)
        (break-align-symbols . (time-signature staff-bar))
        (X-offset . ,(ly:make-simple-closure
                      `(,+
                        ,(ly:make-simple-closure
                          (list 
ly:break-alignable-interface::self-align-callback))
                        ,(ly:make-simple-closure
                          (list 
ly:self-alignment-interface::x-aligned-on-self)))))
        (self-alignment-X . ,LEFT)
        (meta . ((class . Item)
                 (interfaces . (text-interface
                                side-position-interface
                                font-interface
                                break-alignable-interface
                                metronome-mark-interface
                                self-alignment-interface))))))


Any idea what might be wrong? Also, I don't know which settings for 
break-align-symbols is needed to align (1) above the time signature or (2) on 
the next note if no time signature is printed at that position in time...

Cheers,
Reinhold
