Thanks for the tip -- will take a bit of time to unpack and separate from the 
arrow markup.

@Oliver -- tried the textEndMark but saw a couple of issues with it: 1/ it 
won't work for the score because it clumps all the marks outside the staff 
system; and 2/ the last bar in the line expands to fit the text, instead of the 
text just sitting below normally-spaced music. Good suggestion though -- 
\textMark didn't exist last time I did a real project in LilyPond so I didn't 
think of it here.
