I think it would be cleaner to use existing bracket formatting code 
(which supports edge-height, bracket-flare etc.), and provide a separate 
Volta_bracket::after_line_breaking, which sets edge-height depending on 
the type of barline. You could then change the vertical bar by switching 
off the after-line-breaking-callback. Then you can change the appearance 
with the ordinary bracket properties.
