Just as it says. This would be a huge time saver, since I always want to keep the same leading for lyrics. Select one lyric, any lyric, and Shift-down to move all the lyrics on that system.
Obviously Alt- and Ctrl-Alt- would work as before.

Are you thinking in terms of an Engrave mode routine here for vertical spacing adjustment?
Yes, shifting lyric offsets.
This would indeed be a huge timesaver! I run into this with hymnody where is is most aesthetically pleasing to center the lyrics between staves. There are also times when all of the lyrics will be shifted down, because one single syllable is trying to avoid the edge of a slur or some such thing… But in reality they can be tucked closer together than the defaults would ordinarily allow.
