It actually iterates through all context definitions and places the
override in every context definition without \defaultchild.

Richard is right that "this case is a different type of syntax"
inherently, and in his defense, this "naive way" of writing things, due
to being supported only from 2.15.something onward, is not featuring
prominently in our documentation.

Which is probably somewhat unfair to those of our users who first read
documentation before poking LilyPond with a stick.
