Peter,

Put the overrides in a \layout block, like:

\layout {
  \override TabStaff.Stemstencil = ##f
}

This won't create a new context, but it will apply it when you create one.

Abraham

Bug Squad, what about adding it to this chapter of Usage manual?

It's recommended also by mutopia guide lines:
