Yes, you did indeed miss the ignoreMelismata setting, which is described in
the documentation:
http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/Stanzas.html#Stanzas-with-different-rhythms
For an example, see my typeset of Beethoven's arrangement of "O sanctissima"
on CPDL:
http://choralwiki.net/wiki/index.php/O_Sanctissima_(Traditional)
I printed all the slurs solid in this piece, but in other pieces (which are
not freely available), I also used a \slurDotted ...\slurSolid for those
stanza-dependent slurs. But the ignoreMelismata setting in the lyrics is
always the same.
Cheers,
Reinhold
PS: Note that the comment in the documentation about the setting applying only
to the second next syllable ("fas" in this case), is actually no longer true
in LilyPond 2.11.x. The setting now applies to the very next lyrics syllable
already!
