Is this documented somewhere?
\once \override Score.BarLine #'break-glyph-function = #(lambda (glyph dir)

Nope, it's something I created using my limited guru skills.
I just looked quickly, and I think \leftBar and \rightBar would be pretty
clumsy to implement without changing the scheme code for \bar slightly.
Han-Wen, would you accept well-written patches to introduce \leftBar and
\rightBar commands? Suggestion for semantics:
- \bar sets the barline style for barlines not at line breaks, plus defaults
for barlines at breaks
- \rightBar and \leftBar override the defaults set by \bar.
So, essentially, there would be a 'left-break-glyph and 'right-break-glyph
which the default break-glyph-function will look for, and use to override the
default values.
