"See the code" is a euphemism. Try telling your mail client not to
reformat stuff.

Your predicate string-or-list? accepts a string, so LilyPond does not
look for . or anything else. That's a really bad predicate to use here.
Try symbol-list-or-symbol? instead. That should be pretty close to what
one would expect from override-similar syntax. Probably symbol-list?
alone is fine as well, but it will, of course, not accept #'Accidental
(which is not a symbol list), even though it _will_ accept Accidental
without any quotes.
