Hi Peter,

how about this: Just add a tie to an invisible note. This seems pretty
close also to the meaning. I found three ways to lengthen that tie as
far as you like (cf. "adjust …").



\version "2.19.65"

{
  \tempo "Basic idea but not there yet"
  r2  e''4-.(  gis''-.) ~ \hideNotes gis''
  \bar "|."
}


{
  \tempo "Wait for the tie and fill with spacers"
  r2  e''4-.(  gis''-.) ~
  \set tieWaitForNote = ##t
  \hideNotes s4 s s gis''4   % put more short spacers, e.g. s16
  \bar "|."
}


{
  \tempo "Lengthen the tie"
  r2  e''4-.(  gis''-.)
  -\tweak #'minimum-length 8 ~   % adjust 8
  \once \override Score.BarLine.extra-offset = #'(-3 . 0)  % adjust -3
  \hideNotes gis''
  \bar "|."
}

{
  \tempo "Give more space to the first bar line"
  r2  e''4-.(  gis''-.) ~
  \once \override Score.BarLine.X-extent = #'(0 . 4)  % adjust 4
  \hideNotes gis''
  \bar "|."
}

Cheers,
Joram
