It seems as if my question was unclear here: How could the dashed line 
(not the text) be aligned different?

That’s a new feature I would like to add, that’s why I commented it out 
;) The feature itself works, and
        #{ \markup \concat \general-align #Y #UP { "16" \teeny "ma" } #}
works but
        (markup #:concat #:general-align Y UP ("16" #:teeny "ma"))
doesn’t and I don’t know why …
