Subject: Short TextSpanner

I want to have a TextSpanner that spans a single chord WITHOUT any spanner line
after the spanner text. In the example below, I want the 3 barre indications to
all line up vertically across the chords at the TextSpanner height. If the
spanner puts a line for the single chord, it forces the text above the previous
spanner. If I just use markup, I have to fuss with it to get the right vertical
height, and if I change something, I'd have to fuss with it again.
Effectively, I want to say something like:

        \override TextSpanner #'style = #'no-line

Suggestions?

See the two snippets, they might help.

You can use a dash length of '0.0'
