I love lemon and coconut too(as well as chocolate!). I plan on making this cake as soon as I get my ingredients together. I am wondering if after spreading the first layer of batter in the pan you take a spoon and with the smooth side down run a circle around the center to make an indentation. Then put the filling in a pastry bag with no tip or a ziplock bag with the end cut off and pipe it in the circle then cover with the remaining batter. That might help keep it from getting too close to the side and leaking out.
These are some excellent tips-thank you for sharing. JMD @KAF
