Definitely not, take a look at the example called volta-chord-names.ly in the Tips and Tricks document for version 2.5. The explanations in the example are somewhat misleading (I will correct it) since it mentions adding an engraver, but the example itself is relevant. /Mats Robert T Wyatt

The problem is probably that LilyPond chooses a line breaking with fairly tight note spacing, so the resulting glissando symbol is too short to show up. I tried to set \override Glissando #'minimum-length = #5 but it didn't have any effect unless I also did \override Glissando #'spacing-procedure
