That would be a challenge to play.

The graceSettings context property.

Cf.

\new Voice \with
{
  #@(map
      (lambda (grob)
        #{ $(add-grace-property 'Voice grob 'font-size 3) #})
     '(Stem Flag NoteHead Dots Accidental))
  #(add-grace-property 'Voice 'Stem 'length-fraction 1.4)
}
{
  \appoggiatura { g'8 } c'1
}

Admittedly, the "map" call is not saving a lot of typing over 5 separate
add-grace-property calls.  It's for the principle of the thing...
