Thanks.

I guess an approach could be to set up a music-function which takes as
input a chord and adds a markup to it:

 - finds the positions of the top and lower notehead

 - draws or fills (depending on duration) a box with some note-head-size
   width (or thinner if note-heads are to be included) and y0 and y1 =
   extent of chord.  Preferably doing some graphical tweaks such as
   thicker lines on top/bottom than sides etc.

 - optionally gets rid of default noteheads, or replacing with some
   manually prescribed heads (pr. note/pr. chord)

Ill send something which could be a start in the next post.
