Thanks -- that works like a charm, once I realized that the particular
setting I needed can be hoisted to a global layout and still work.
Apparently, I just need to sit down with the 2.8 manual and relearn
lilypond -- so much has changed since I started (with 2.0) that it's
almost a completely different language -- much like the difference
between the English of Chaucer and the New York Times -- both are
English, but with a sufficiently different vocabulary and expectations
that some confusion is likely.

Hi, Michael:
Is there a way to define something like a music expression that can
be included here?
I'm assuming you understand the concept of stylesheets? (See the docs
for examples...)
For instance, I have the following stylesheets:
1. KM_init_Score
2. KM_init_PianoStaff
3. KM_init_Lyrics
4. KM_init_Song (\include-s KM_init_Score, *PianoStaff, and
*Lyrics)
These describe my "house style(s)".
Then, in (e.g.) a song score, I'll simply \include KM_init_Song, and
everything is hunky-dory. If I need to change my "house style" for
lieder, I simply make the change at the appropriate level (usually
*Song, since others might be included elsewhere) and then recompile
all my individual song \score-s.
Works like a charm!
Best regards,
Kieren.
