You could try generating an empty barline
\bar "";
(or \bar "empty";, I forgot), and attach a mark above
\mark "\breathesign";
If this deosn't work, you should start hacking in C++ :). For
starters, you could add a markDirection property that allows you to
set the direction of the sign to below the staff.
