OK.

1. I used to define custom contexts FirstLyric and MoreLyrics, in  
which [only] the #'minimum-Y-extent was set differently, in order to  
control inter-multiple-Lyric spacing — am I right in inferring that  
#'inter-loose-line-spacing will replace the need for such custom  
contexts?

2. I get the error "cannot find property type-check for `non-affinity- 
spacing'" [v 2.13.4-1]...?

3. If I put a line of Lyrics above a staff, do I need to adjust  
#'staff-affinity (e.g., in a \with block)?

Will do... thank you for your continued efforts in improving Lilypond!
