Looking in the index of the notation manual
<URL:http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/lilypond-index#lilypond-index_cp_letter-O>
I find an entry for
<URL:http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/other#index-overriding-properties-within-text-markup>

The example overrides baseline-skip.  Now the subject of your enquiry
already included the term "baseline-skip", so you knew what you were
looking for.  Entering baseline-skip in the search box of the LilyPond
manual cranks out quite a few links with overrides among the first 10
hits.
