Note to Self: Lilypond Edition

Vertically Align and Horizontally Space Markup Above the Staff

% This controls the vertical padding between the staff and text.
% (Higher number = more space.)
\override TextScript.staff-padding = #5
% This controls the horizontal space between text items.
% (Useful to force a little extra space between text items
% so they're all on one line)
\override TextScript.extra-spacing-width = #'(-0.5 . +0.5)

(Presumably this should work for markup below the staff too)
