The change just means that it works more intuitively. The old buggy
behaviour is described in http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2004-01/msg00224.html.
Now, you can safely set a property on the Score level if you want it
to apply to all Voices, for example.
(Regarding your example, I hope you realize that extra-offset is an object property, so you have to set it on a layout object, such as TimeSignature, TextScript or NoteHead. These objects live in some context, such as the Voice context, though. I recommend to read the new section on "Changing Defaults" in the latest version of the manual.)

Hey, y'all --
Once again, I can't keep up with HW, J, and M (the Finkster): the versions are coming too fast and furious! ;-)
From the Release Notes, I noticed that somewhere along the way,
Tweaks made with \override and \revert no longer hide tweaks at higher context levels.
Does this mean that tweaks are now additive, in the sense that (e.g.) if I have set Staff.extra-offset to 3 and then set Voice.extra-offset to 2, that the total extra-offset for items in that Voice context is 5?
Is this different from how it happened in the past (i.e., would the total V.e-o be 2 in my example)?
Thanks! Kieren.
