\markup  { bla bar baz }

is showed by \displayMusic as

#(markup #:line (bla bar baz))

even if the construct showed in the docs

#(markup bla bar baz)

works fine.

Writing markup in Scheme is not the only issue here; overrides or
setting a property are often made with constants (e.g. '(a . b) for a
pair), so it's not easy to figure out how to do this if you need
variables or function calls, when you're not familiar with Scheme.
