Here's another possibility with just two modes:
\relative [optional pitch] {…}
\octave [obligatory pitch] {…}
And then just use \octave c {…} instead of \absolute {…}.
In most cases one would simply use plain {…} for absolute-entry and would only
need to use \octave c {…} when embedding inside \relative {…}.
(Hmmm… I think I prefer this approach over the others.)
