Hi,

I thought it might be convenient: Since brace, bracket and square 
_imply_ that a barline is printed, it seemed more logical to me if you 
can write barlineOnly if you want just that, _only_ a barline. But since 
standard LP offers the alternatives "brace, bracket, square, barline", 
it seemed stupid not to support this as well.

I disagree that LP does not follow the standard engraving rules. It just 
seems to me that \new GrandStaff etc. imply a certain semantics which is 
perfectly alright for, e.g., an orchestral Piano part, but just does not 
apply for the braces connecting Violin 1 and 2. - I do not own Gould's 
book, but I would expect that this is discussed there.

But I'll try and see what I can find out about registering snippets (but 
then I should polish the code a bit more).

Best
