I agree with your analysis.  What you describe can be summarized in
quite a simple way: \book header data should stay together, and \score
header data should stay together, too.  So if I have an `opus' field
in the \book header, I expect it to be placed before any \score or
top-level \markup blocks.

And in case there is no \book block, all of the \header stuff should
be either be placed before top-level \markups (which I prefer) or
directly before the \score blocks (which I would consider unexpected
but can be probably justified).  However, scattering the data
vertically is a bad thing IMHO.

I'm now even more convinced that this is a bug.
