The right way to do this is to develop a function that adds durations to
lyric syllables based on a music expression (you can see the prototype in
the \lyricsto c++ source code). I plan to work on this sometime in the
future (probably first with scheme).
I think it can solve the \lyricsto \partcombine problem, too. But we'll
see.
The current workaround is somewhat awkward, but it's usable. It's just a
tweak to the example already in the docs (adding the manual melismata in the
melody).
