Typesetting tweak with percent repeat

[Evan Driscoll]

Suppose I have a percent repeat. I'd like to place a bowing mark above it. (I realize this isn't strictly "correct" perhaps.) Is there a way to do that? My guess to the most promising approach is to use the \makePercent isolated repeat from http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/short-repeats, but I don't know how to get it to work.

For example, in the document below, I'd like an upbow over the percent in measure 2. How can I get that? The \upbow on the s1 that's in there now doesn't work.

Thanks,

Evan
