This would enable you to make an easy adjustment of the length of the
arpeggio line based on what LilyPond assigns by default.  Writing

\offset Arpeggio #'positions #'(-1 . 1)

will move each endpoint one staff-space from where it would be ordinarily.

You can (with current development versions) alter just one arpeggio like so:

\once \offset Arpeggio #'positions #'(-1 . 1)

I've attached the file below (with some slight changes from the link Janek
directs you to:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg47077.html)  The
examples give a number of other applications, including broken spanners.

[The version for the file is 2.15.41.  Some adjustment would need to be
made for 2.14.]

Hope you find this helpful!

-David
