Oh, one other thing I noticed.  There seems to be no way to have one bracket end at a note and another bracket start at that same note.

Which of course makes them unsuitable for showing phrase elision.

Getting a TextSpanner to begin on a note and another to start on the same note requires some sleight-of-hand (you can see this in Scheme in the regression test scheme-text-spanner.ly).  I wonder if the to accommodate nested brackets ruled "conflicting note group events" out?
