I once solved a lyrics spacing problem using a strut of my own making.
Something like:
\markup \transparent \huge "|"

Yes, this would indeed work, but the approach is quite ugly:

\header {
  title = \markup \overlay {
    \transparent \fontsize #1 "|"
    "Title"
  }
}

Also, the PDF file’s title would be “| Title”, which is annoying (but could probably be avoided by adjusting \bookTitleMarkup).

I don’t suppose there is a way to change a markup’s reference point to being the baseline?
