Use settings such as 

\property Staff.PianoPedalBracket \override #'edge-height = #'(1.0 . 0.0)

to tweak the heights of the bracket edges. The ends of these partial
brackets will have to be attached to notes. So if there aren't any
notes already in the appropriate places, then you will have to create
fake silent notes to attach the edge to.

Best I can do for the moment is something like \sU\sD, where

sU = \spanrequest \stop "Sustain" 
sD = \spanrequest \start "Sustain"
