Well, as I said: if we want to support nested properties, distinguishing
xxx.yyy from meaning property yyy of Grob xxx, or meaning subproperty
yyy of property xxx will again be a problem
What about
\grob Accidental \tweak color #red cis
or
\on Accidental \tweak color #red cis
Would that be better (yes, my two-letter proposals are quite unpopular,
but this one does not seem so bad)?

I am afraid that it will likely fall to my lot to write about the "type
system" of LilyPond syntax. At least the first iterations of that.
