Yes, IIUC your question it's just the same issue.
I can't see any specific problem with \glissando. The problem is when 
you have a legato slide, which uses \glissando *and* slurs.

This works fine:

\version "2.19.16"
\include "notation-snippets/guitar-string-bending/definitions.ily"

\paper {
 ragged-last = ##f
}

music = \relative c' {
 \bendOn
 d8( dis) \glissando e4\2 r2 |
 R1
}
