Ah, thank you. That covers it. I wonder if it would help if this was
referred to on the page
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/changing-context-default-settings#changing-all-contexts-of-the-same-type
as well. That is the page I reached and it appears to be telling you how
to change default settings for all contexts of the same type, but
doesn't (AFAICS) reference this way of applying the setting to all Score
contexts.
