Is Postscript easier than the built-in markup commands?
\markup{\concat{ \draw-line #'(0 . 3) \draw-line #'(1 . 0)}}
The tricky part is to automatically get correct the length and position. 
The way I would approach
the problem would be to implement my own Scheme function that can be 
used to override the
Arpeggio #'stencil property. The built-in stencil functions for the 
different possible layouts for
arpeggio are implemented in C++, but I think you can extract the same 
information from the
Arpeggio object using Scheme.
