It is sort of amusing that the really invasive things pass without a  
hitch.  Pushed to staging as

    Issue 2869: Regularize lyrics lexer mode

    That makes lyrics mode rather similar to markup mode regarding how
    words are formed.  {} are never considered part of words unless
    enclosed in quotes.  Unquoted words do not contain whitespace, braces,
    quotes, backslashes, numbers or Scheme expressions.  In addition, they
    cannot start with * . = and | since that would mess with duration,
    assignment and barcheck syntax.  This removes some remaining
    TeX-oriented cruft in the lexer.  The set of word-non-starters might
    need revisiting, but at least the regtests seem to pass.
