Hi Kieren,
without even looking at your example, to be honest, but a shot in the dark:
Fo you still remember David's and Mike's "magnetic snapping lyrics"?

This snippet eventually went into OpenLilyLib, and was apparently
rediscovered as non-working about a year ago by Urs, see

I've just been doing some choral engraving where lyric hyphens are eliminated
where there is no space. And I haven't used any special tools. It may only
work where \textWidthOn has added space to the notes.
Consider Christmastime in the following snippet.
