I’m sorry I haven’t spent time to thoroughly understand your needs, but it 
sounds like there is a chance that something derived from this (which I have 
actually used) would help:

stripArticulation =
#(define-music-function
  (parser location music) (ly:music?)
  (music-filter
   (lambda (m) (not (eq? (ly:music-property m 'name) 'ArticulationEvent)))
   music))

Rather than redefining \upbow, use \stripBowings \yourMusic to filter out the 
articulations you don’t want to see.

Another approach that might work is to put the articulations in a different 
music variable attached to spacers (e.g. “s1”) and then put it in simultaneous 
music like <<\yourMusic \yourBowings>>, but I can’t say much about that because 
I don’t do it.
