Kieren,

A while ago I started a module of sorts for adding
pictograms to LilyPond.  I've started with percussion
pictograms, but certainly the harp pictograms could use the
same code.  The only problem is that it's a big complicated
project (because I want it to be easy and flexible), and
I've not had a lot of time to work on it.

As it stands, I've not incorporated Spanners specifically, so
maybe there wouldn't be too much overlap with your work.
I've been reluctant to post anything because it's kind of a
big mess at the moment, with a lot of ideas going around.

But someone else mentioned something similar recently, so
I'd like to post something soon-ish... but I can't say
exactly when.
