Well, in this case David N's solution is better since it uses the normal
(skyline-based) page positioning rather than treating everything as
markup lines.

Mine is easier to understand, and the \center-in-line or something more
general (align-in-line?) is really annoyingly absent in the LilyPond
markup toolbox.

So there is certainly _something_ from my proposed solution that should
really be readily available in LilyPond, and it's likely not too hard to
abstract something useful for any kind of markup here.

David N's solution is the better one but it is trickier to identify a
tangible component to abstract into a generally useful utility.
