Though your solution happens to work, it's an unsupported tweak. Don't expect 
it to work with future versions of lily.

I did a quick test, and the following seems to be the "right" way to do it:

{c1 \break
\once \override Score.BarLine #'break-glyph-function = #(lambda (glyph dir) 
(if (> 0 dir) "|." "|:"))
c1 }

It would be possible to add functions \leftBar and \rightBar, to abbreviate 
this.

You can upload it to LSR, if you like.
