Read in "Scaling Durations" in the manual to understand how my
trick works. For a half note, you could do
a2*1/2 \glissando \once \override Stem #'transparent = ##t \tiny e4 ...

The MIDI support in LilyPond is not intelligent enough to handle a
glissando at all, so you will hear the start and end note of the
glissando (well, just try and see what happens, that's easier than
that I try to explain it in words).

Do you mean something like
\version "2.8.0"

\relative c''{

e4*1/2 \normalsize c'4 b a
}

Yes, that does work, thank you. However, with that I have a problem in
that if the first note is a half note, the notehead of the tiny final
note will be hollow, while in the score I am working from, they are
all filled in regardless of the length of the first note.

Also, does your solution here function properly in MIDI output?
