That's an excellent snippet, but overkill for rests.

A bit of Scheme code is all you need:

\override Rest #'stencil = #(lambda (grob)
    (bracketify-stencil (ly:rest::print grob) Y 0.2 0.2 0.2))

The appearance can be adjusted by altering the three numbers which
determine the bracket's thickness, protrusion and padding.
