Accent vs. slur

Greetings - (LilyPond Version 2.8.4.1 Windows XP SP2) In the following snippet, I'd like to move the accents that are touching the slurs upwards, without moving the slurs, in order to make the score more clear. I figured out how to move both the accent and the slur, but I get errors when I try to

First alternative bracket gets lost across line break

Hello, v2.8.5 I have a score where a line break naturally occurs (not via \break command) within a first \alternative ending. The alternative 1 bracket is not continuing onto the next line. (The second alternative bracket is ok but that one does not have a line break either.) Is this a bug?

In several places, documentation refers to "font metric" but I have not found a syntax definition or an example of its use. Specifically, in the function: ly:font-filename font (given the font metric font, return the corresponding file name) what is the syntax for font?
