Hi Gabe,

here is a hack, that looks similar to the desired bar. I am sure there
are better ways to do this (perhaps using postscript), but it looks very
similar:

\version "2.17.26"

% definition of the long bar
longbar = {
  \override Rest #'font-size = #4
  \override Rest #'staff-position = #-2
  r2*1/4
  \once \override Rest #'extra-offset = #'(-1.3 . 0)
  r2*1/4
  \revert Rest #'font-size
  \revert Rest #'staff-position
}

%usage (example)
{
  \cadenzaOn
  r4 \longbar r4
}

> 4) how to add an "umlaut" over a letter as in the example.

For vowels you can use the corresponding unicode characters:
äëïöüÿ also combined with other marks:  ï̈́

HTH,
Joram
