I've seen this in a few scores, mostly in the music of Hans Tutschku.  I 
haven't completely wrapped my head around the best way to implement it, but it 
seems like one solution is overriding the stencil function of the 
LedgerLineSpanner to be continuous across notes.  There'd need to be some 
additional tweaks, like maybe accidental placement stuff, but otherwise it is 
more consistent with what's going on, as the extender staff is philosophically 
more like a ledger line than a staff (for example, one wouldn't put dynamics or 
scripts between the real and extender staff).
