They are (in the Program reference)! If they aren't it's a bug.

That's right, since it's unset by default.

That's exactly what's done today.

For example, if you look at the page for the DynamicLineSpanner
in the Program Reference, you will find out that the default value
of axes is '(1), the default for Y-offset is 
ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side
and so on.
