Well, this is perhaps what we need. I think it would be nice if Lilypond tried
to just typeset a markup in a way where no stretching of measures would be
needed (as 2.14.2 does) or the markup would be cut off (as 2.12.3 does). E. g.
by simply typesetting the measure in the next line – if the stretching of the
measures before would still be acceptable. Perhaps with the option to turn
that mechanism off, like when turning off the collision checks.
I really don't know if that could be done in an easy way or that would be also
an acceptable behaviour for most users …
