We’re talking a lot about \override Bottom.Grob.property, but wouldn’t we 
rather have \override Grob.property do what we want on its own?

What if we defined \override Grob.property as addressing the nearest enclosing 
context named “”, and aliased all contexts except part/sub-voice to “”.  (Maybe 
I’ll try that tonight and see what happens.)
