I think that in the last three weeks or so somebody posted a Scheme
version of the key signature engraver here.  That would likely be the
go-to solution for fudging a bracket in.

A hand-grown solution would be to replace the code putting the key
signature in with something that adds the bracket on top (experimenting
until one has it positioned correctly).

I'm a bit at a loss about what a nice _user_ interface for achieving
that kind of thing should look like.
