stop =
#(define-music-function (parser location music) (ly:music?)
  (set! (ly:music-property music 'tweaks)
        (acons 'before-line-breaking
               (lambda (grob)
                 (let ((dots (ly:grob-object grob 'dot)))
                   (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'duration-log 2)
                   (and (ly:grob? dots)
                        (ly:grob-set-property! dots 'dot-count 0))))
               (ly:music-property music 'tweaks)))
  music)

\new Staff \relative c'
{
  <\stop c \stop e g>2.
}

I forget who created this when I ask the same question a while back,
but it works great.
