I wanted to put out the usual "we need to document this" tirade, but it
turns out that
<URL:http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/notation/defining-new-contexts>

Since it is similar to the Voice, we want commands that work on
(existing) Voices to remain working. This is achieved by giving the
new context an alias Voice,
\alias Voice
Which is rather close.
