Maybe the new spacing techniques in 2.11 could allow for lyrics to be centered 
between staffs?

e.g: have 5 Lyrics contexts:

verse 1
verse 2
  <skips>                       refrain
verse 3
verse 4

and have verse 2 and 3 just close to each other because there is are only 
skips in the refrain lyrics. I didn't try.

when there is an odd number of verses, the refrain lyrics could be added to 
the middle verse.

with best regards,
