Description

Your idea

It would be good to have an option (arguably it should be the default for composer - lyricist text) to align the baseline of the text - and not the bottom of the bounding box - to the bottom of the frame.

Problem to be solved

Otherwise text descenders may cause e.g. lyricist and composer texts to be vertically misaligned.
