I've been working on similar stuff lately. I can make no promises though.

As an educative note, glissandi are considered items in the internal 
logic (not spanners). You can see this as 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/internals/arpeggio. In 
LilyPond, the spanner terminology refers to an object that spans several 
columns horizontally.
