This inspired me to set capo to -1 and indeed the capo indication
vanishes:
\version "2.19.30"

\markup
  \override #'(size . 5)
  \override #'(fret-diagram-details . ((finger-code . in-dot)))
  \fill-line {
      \fret-diagram-verbose #`(
        (capo -1)
        (place-fret 3 0 "g")
      )
  }

(I know it's a dirty trick and I'll write a bug report as soon as I can.)

Thanks for looking into it!
