Ugh, sorry, I didn't intend to take this off-list. Feel free to repost here.

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/music-expressions-explained#simultaneous-music-expressions-single-staff

explains that the number of staves this stuff is packed into depends on 
whether the very first expression is a single note or a "simultaneous 
music" event.

{ c1 << R1 { s2. s4^"some markup" } >> }

does what you expect, on a single staff.

This really shouldn't be of any noticeable impact in any non-trivial 
score (read: if you have a \score { ... } block written out in your file).
