Would it be even more clear to have instead of @var{offsets} something

@var{offset-value} or @var{property-value}?
(Same below and in the docstring for the offset-command in
music-functions-init.ly)
Please keep in mind I'm not a native speaker, so I may be wrong here.
"offsets" works, but I could change this to "displacements" -- you know,
sort of like not using a word in its own definition. There would also
be no confusion between noun and verb senses, since "displacements" is
only a noun.
But maybe, since the docs are supposed to be clear to native and
non-native speakers, "offset-values" or "offset-amounts" would be best?
