Thank you very much! This is a perfect solution. Now I can define some 
variables like this:
bI={ \once \override Score.BreathingSign #'transparent = ##t
    \once \override Score.BreathingSign #'X-extent = #'(0 . 2)
    \breathe
}
with different spacings, keep the lyrics untouched and music source more 
comfortable to read and write.

Now the only thing I need for my full joy - align upper lyrics to phrasing 
slurs without writing explicit durations for each syllable.

Best wishes,
Svetlana.
