What if you have grob-cause set a grob-cause for the subsequent
notehead/grob to pick up and draw?  Something like

   (define cause #f)
   (define (grob-cause offset grob)
     (set! cause (ly:format ...)))

   (define (named-glyph font name)
     (dispatch `(fontify ,font ,name ,cause)))

would that work?

Can some of this code be shared with output-ps and moved to
output-lib.scm?

Greetings,
Jan
