While this is true, I think the OP was looking for something else. Here's
what I found. In the file ly/declarations-init.ly, the last line says this:
setDefaultDurationToQuarter = { c4 }
It seems that changing this expression's duration should do what you want,
but it didn't matter what duration I put in there, I couldn't get it to
change from defaulting to quarter notes. Maybe a developer can enlighten us
further.
