impossible to move chord symbols above lyrics that are above stave
in case of automatic placement, I find no way to force chord symbols to be placed above lyrics that are above the stave. They are always placed between lyrics and stave, see appended screen shot and sample score.

The "stacking order" of elements above or below the stave is hardcoded in the layout routine. I assume that chord symbols (and some other elements) should always be placed above lyrics and fixed it that way.
I did not see yet a case where it would be desirable to have a property to change this order.

Ok, the main problem is solved. But I still find no way to move the chords from the general style settings to a suitable position. Now chords move from one measure to another, depending of the existance of lyrics text.
I'd like to define a minimum distance of the chord from the staff lines.
What are the settings "default vertical position A/B" good for? They seem to change nothing in my score.
I fixed the non working "default vertical position" for chord symbols in master.
