I'd love such a command too; in the meantime I play with settings like

\context
{
\Score
% \override SpacingSpanner #'packed-spacing = ##t
\override SpacingSpanner #'base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment 16 1)
\override SpacingSpanner #'shortest-duration-space = #0
\override SpacingSpanner #'spacing-increment = #0
}
