Just change the arpeggio appearance back using \arpeggioNormal. This is

Not really, because if I do what the documentation says, I get the zigzag. I've come up with a solution based on Mark's advice. I guess the last question, as a relative newbie to this stuff... Can I make it so I don't need a \arpeggio to follow \barreBracket?

barreBracket = {

 \once \revert Staff.Arpeggio #'X-extent

 \once \override Staff.Arpeggio #'stencil =

   #ly:arpeggio::brew-chord-bracket

 \arpeggioBracket

}

upper = \relative c'' {

\voiceOne

\barreBracket <a> \arpeggio b c 

\arpeggioNormal<a c e>4 \arpeggio

\barreBracket <a> \arpeggio b c 

\arpeggioNormal<a c e>4 \arpeggio

}

lower = \relative c'' {

\voiceTwo

\arpeggioBracket <e,>2. \arpeggio 

\arpeggioNormal<a,>4 \arpeggio

\arpeggioBracket <e'>2. \arpeggio 

\arpeggioNormal<a,>4 \arpeggio

}

\score {

    \new Staff \with {

 \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver"

}

{

\set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t

<<

     \context Voice = "upper" \upper

     \context Voice = "lower" \lower

   >>

}

}
