Oh, #{ ... #} is not new. It's been there since basically forever at
least for straightforward music expressions (rather than layout
definitions, markups, and other stuff). It became more versatile around
2.14 and started to work nicely with lexical closures at a similar point
of time.
The above would roughly be
#(define (color-element grob color)
#{ \once \override #grob . color = #color #})
Note that the default context for overrides is Bottom anyway, so you
don't need to write \override Bottom . #grob . color here.
