In that case it seems the documentation is a least misleading. Under
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/the-paper-block
it states that a \paper block can appear inside a \bookpart block
and under
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/other-paper-variables#paper-variables-for-page-numbering
there is a paragraph "Known issues and warnings" that only talks about
even and odd numbers, left and right etc.
There probably should be mentioning that some variables have no effect
inside certain blocks.

Thanks alot, helpful as always :)
I will have a look at it. Also thanks to Kieren for the briefish
solution to my problem at hand. Much appreciated.
Kind regards,
