I have a different suggestion which might solve your problem to some degree:
You can split up music into short segments, and then align lyrics to a
devnull context which you compose from those short segments. IIRC we
discussed this on lily-user some time ago, search for devnull and lyricsto.

I don't think your suggestion would work well with the current incarnation of
\tag, because it's based on operations on music expressions.
However, I think this can be an application of the new music stream
architecture: We could add a layer of listeners between front-end and
back-end, which filter out all events with specific tags; \tagsOn/Off would
change those filters in interpretation-time.
