Probably:

indicator =
#(define-event-function ()()
    #{
      \tweak X-offset 0.75
      -\markup \path #0.17 #'((moveto 0 0) (lineto 0 0.75))
    #})

\relative {
   \override TextScript.avoid-slur = #'inside
   \override TextScript.cross-staff = ##t
   d''4 e8 [ ^\indicator ( e ] ^\indicator )
   d8 [ -. ( d ] -. )
}


Not sure about the consequences, though.
