I admit that I use a poor solution, shifting the space reserved for the
tempo marking up by one staff space. In addition to what you have already,
\override MetronomeMark #'extra-spacing-height = #'(1 . 1)
Then the collision avoidance system thinks the notes can slide under the
tempo mark, but the bar lines cannot. This might not work in version 2.16.
For a better solution, I suggest you search the mailing list archives
for "MarkLine"

The details of this solution seem to need updating to work with the current
version of LilyPond, but the concept should continue to work forever.
