Those are not actually grace notes but a cadenza.  You enter it with
\cadenzaOn/\cadenzaOff and have to keep your timing manually (including
having to add manual beams).

Giving the notes graceish looks is a different problem.  Maybe we should
provide the means to create graceish looks without switching to grace
timing, to better facilitate cadenze which are often written in this
manner.  I don't know offhand how to switch to grace note style or
something comparable right now, but hopefully someone else will chip in
here.
