changing spacing between title and first system

[Jeffrey Trevino]

Hi there,

Could someone please show me a short, working example of an .ly that sets the spacing between the title and the first system? I was about to give it a shot myself, until I saw, under "known issues and warnings" for version 2.16,

"The titles (from the \header block) are treated as a
system, so ragged-bottom and ragged-last-bottom will
add space between the titles and the first system of the score.
"

If this is the case, then how can I change the spacing between the title -- to Lilypond, the "first system," I guess -- and the first system of music, without disturbing the spacing between the systems of actual music? Looking at past versions' documentation, it seems like this used to be easier to do.

thank you,
Jeff
