I want to point out that I do not think you need the revert to cancel them,
since they will be canceled just by changing the time signature. You could
also stick them in a def.ly file and include them at the top of your file,
since they would not be in force until you changed to a 5/8 time signature.
Would you get a group of three followed by a group of two if you reversed
the order of the overrides?
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 3 8 'Score)
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 2 8 'Score)

The main thing is that I would like to create my own custom overrides for
signatures like 5/4, but I don't understand it well enough. The

of not having to manually beam every last note in a piece is worth the
effort.
For 5/8, I use one of the following:
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 2 8 'Score)
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 3 8 'Score)
with
#(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 2 8 'Score)
#(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 5 8) 3 8 'Score)
to cancel them when I'm done.
I would imagine that you'd do something similar for 5/4.
