I should definitely set aside some time to dive in and get more familiar with reviewing the code base for future scenarios like this. I have been using LilyPond for almost ten years and never cracked open the source.

The markup command \left-bracket does nothing but draw a bracket and the only parameter is a pair for setting its dimension in Y direction (down and up) so that it can quite used quite conveniently by directly stating how far
it should reach down and up (with the baseline as a reference).

Many thanks, Torsten! That custom command is exactly what I need, as it produces a simple, clean marking.
