And that was
when I found out, that \caps, as well as \smallCaps, "does not support
accented character" (quoted from
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/font) - the รค - is
printed as a lowercase letter.

Any decent font nowadays has upcase versions for accented glyphs. It's
about time the \caps handling gets updated to the 21st century.

BTW forget about the \smallCaps, that's a distinct issue.
The issue is that caps and smallCaps are exactly the same to LilyPond, which is in itself nonsense. caps is a copy of smallCaps. 

Best, Simon
