Default Reaper: Import MIDI with lyrics upgrade?

Hi

MIDI files are using meta Event FF 05 len xxx for lyrics.
These lyrics are track indipendent.
But there is a problem with reaper MIDI Import of lyrics:
If they are not assigned to a track MTrk, they are not loaded? and displayed.
Cubase in this case creates a track named SYSEX and put the meta events in this track. So it can be displayed in List and Score View.

Is there something hidden in reaper to import all types of lyrics?

Otherwise, would it be possible to create a functionality in reaper to decide in a pre import window, into which track reaper should place these meta events for lyrics? Only the user can decide, which is the melody track.
Or like cubase create a special track for these?
Or put them all together in track1 , if selected?

cu
