This is nice!

But ultimately it shows that we still need easier and more intuitive 
methods/interfaces… Imagine, if you will, something like:

    Here’s my lyr — ic, __4 in which ex — ten — ders have a dur — a — tion! 
__2*3

I am totally oblivious to how this might work/not/interfere/crash, but it’s far 
better (in my opinion) than having to add a whole separate context for 
something as simple as controlling the length of a lyric extender.

Cheers,
Kieren.
