I have coded this up and pushed it to git.
So now to transpose just one Staff you choose
Staff Properties -> Custom prolog
and put in that box the transposition required (in LilyPond syntax),
e.g.

\transpose c d

would transpose up a tone

\transpose c c'

would transpose up an octave

\transpose c c,

down an octave

\transpose c bes,

down a major second. (is = sharp, es = flat, see LilyPond docs for more
details - any other changes in the LilyPond print out that you want to
apply to the whole staff can be placed here).
