It's not so hard, really. Just copy the appropriate definition from
the source code (the relevant file is titling-init.ly), and redefine
it.

Oh, please don't cry. Most of the time all you need to do is ask
nicely on the list. Here's the code you want (and please note that i
am _not_ a coder at all, just a musician; all I did is add _one_
percent character in the definition):
%%%%
\header {
instrument = tagada
}
\paper {
bookTitleMarkup = \markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\fill-line { \fromproperty #'header:dedication }
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\huge \bigger \bold
\fill-line {
\bigger \fromproperty #'header:title
}
\fill-line {
\large \smaller \bold
\bigger \fromproperty #'header:subtitle
}
\fill-line {
\smaller \bold
\fromproperty #'header:subsubtitle
}
\fill-line {
%\fromproperty #'header:poet %HERE!
{ \large \bold \fromproperty #'header:instrument }
\fromproperty #'header:composer
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:meter
\fromproperty #'header:arranger
}
}
}
}
}
\relative c {c d e f }
%%%%
Cheers,
Valentin
