Have you tried fiddling with BarLine #'space-alist?  Changing the
next-note entry to use minimum-fixed-space appears to deliver the
goods:

\override Staff.BarLine #'space-alist =
#'((time-signature . (extra-space . 0.75))
   (custos . (minimum-space . 2.0))
   (clef . (minimum-space . 1.0))
   (key-signature . (extra-space . 1.0))
   (key-cancellation . (extra-space . 1.0))
   (first-note . (fixed-space . 1))
   (next-note . (minimum-fixed-space  . 1.2))
   (right-edge . (extra-space . 0.0)))

This doesn't work for the single-note case since that's altered later
using the grob property 'full-measure-extra-space (it overrides the
space-alist default set by StaffSpacing).

Cheers,
Neil
