To accomplish something like what you referred to, I put this in the
header:
tsMarkup = \markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 0.5)
\number {
\column { "2" "4" }
\musicglyph #"scripts.stopped"
\column { "3" "4" }
}
and this in the score (note the tsMarkup):
% Variation VI
% rehearsal 52
\override Staff.TimeSignature #'print-function =
#Text_interface::print
\override Staff.TimeSignature #'text = #tsMarkup
\time 5/4
\once \override TextScript #'font-size = #3
\once \override TextScript #'padding = #2
d8)^\markup { \bold { Var. VI } } g-. d-. g-. \bar ":" fis4( e8) r
b16( c b c
d8) e d e \bar ":" c2 c16( d c d % \break
e8) bes'-. e,-. bes'-. \bar ":" a4( g8) r e16( f e f
g8) a-. g-. a-. \bar ":" fis2 r4 \bar "||"
\revert Staff.TimeSignature #'print-function
\revert Staff.TimeSignature #'text
\time 4/4
See the attachment for the result. This is a work-in-progress, so a few
things on this page are still messy, but the time signature at 52 is
fine. As for the parentheses in your example, you can make really big
parentheses with \markup and offset them to the appropriate location.
Hope this helps.

Now, I figure I can handle the "invisible" changes between 9/8 and 3/4
by using \compressMusic or \times as necessary. I'm guessing that the
compound time signature hack could serve as a model for the displaying
the time signature as it is in the above example, but I only about half
understand how that all works.
Insights/comments/suggestions are welcome.
