IMHO, in the general case they belong to a voice, not to a staff.  In
some "special cases" (actually, in some very common cases), e.g. one
voice per staff or the same rythm in all voices on a staff, this is
equivalent to their being part of a staff.  In the case of the same
rythm in all voices, they could even belong to the ChoirStaff context,
logically.

Other than that, I agree.  I quite miss a stronger and more logical
binding between lyrics and music; after all, the lyrics *are* part of
the description of how vocal music is to be sung.
