Hi Stefano,

I face this sort of thing all the time in the new complexity scores that I
set. Despite the elegance you seek - and I fully understand the vertical
end point alignment you are wanting - sometimes it is easiest just to roll
over and draw the lines as a path, perhaps using Postscript, or path markup
commands. This may make more sense when you encounter things that are like
hairpins but not quite - the sort of graphics composers armed with pencils
like to draw, unwitting of the agonies it causes we engravers.
