I think this is ok. I will be using a proportional notation anyway so I think it is fine to set \override Glissando.after-line-breaking = ##f Maybe ideally there would be some distribution or only partial reiteration (instead of getting all colors again), but I think this will work fine.

Another option for the line breading is to give the target final note for a system, hide it (basically the last note in your example). then in the next system. do the same with the starting note on the left side and hide it. Kind of a hack, but could actually look nice because you would see

Hi Craig, the intent of the edition engraver is to separate overrides from the content. So it is not the EE that is creating custom dynamics, but it might prove useful, if you want to apply them on an external Score or on arbitrary spots inside the Score. A attached an example. HTH
