The usual way to accomplish what you are looking for is adding a hidden 
voice (where everything is hidden except the slur/tie/phrasingSlur).
I think there has been a thread on this recently.
But I think you are right that LIlyPond could support this (quite 
regular) notation issue somewhat better.

Sorry, don't have the time right now to help you more detailed than with 
this hint.

Hope it helps anyway
