Ah, I see - yes, you're right - will change in a new patch in a couple days.
The problem with SpanBars having Y-extents is that they can never have pure Y extents, as it is not possible
to figure out how high they'll be before line breaks.
One solution would be to create a BarStub grob that works like SpanBarStub but in Staves. Give it all the same
properties as the BarLine save the stencil. Then, have the extra-spacing-height callback apply to
BarStub and not BarLine.
But this seems a bit excessive - where are concrete cases that involve people removing the
Bar_line_engraver and, in these cases, can they accomplish the same thing by setting #'transparent = ##t ?
