bracket slurs?

[Michael Gerdau]

Hi Lilyponders,

in old(er) music like e.g. Melchior Franck I sometimes find brackets for slurs, 
most often between full notes. I have tried to mimic this using tuplet brackets 
but they are only similar and need manual tweaking each time w/r to their 
position. I'd also have to take care of melismata manually. All doable but...

Would it be (reasonably easily) possible to manipulate slurs such that they 
produce brackets instead of splines?

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.21.0"

{
  \override TupletBracket.positions = #'(0.0 . 2.0)
  \omit TupletNumber
  \tuplet 2/2 { c'1 g' }
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Kind regards,
Michael
