I don't believe anybody that I'm aware of right now is likely to jump
on changing pedals from TextScript to TextSpanner, so I don't think

I thought that overriding the function was trivial for the developer of that part, then I wrote my memo.
Your words prevent me too to analyze/hack the chain of overrides, it would be too long.
At the current state, then, I don't see at the moment any better solution than Pierre's one, having care to include a hidden pedal so to not corrupt the midi
