I'm leaning toward something very simple, like ---16 20--- whitespace between pad numbers means play simultaneously. For stemmed tablature, I'd say the stems should attach to the rightmost pad number for up stems and the leftmost for downstems. Slurs, I suppose, should extend from the leftmost pad that's musically part of the slur to the rightmost. For glissandi, it may be challenging to cover all possibilities. The Linnstrument permits a slide from any pad to any other in the same row, so there's a need to cover cases like sliding from the center note of 3 pads held down on a row to some other note.
