Hello Jean, I think it does make sense to apply the line spanner interface for any Spanner that behaves pretty much like a line spanner. But then maybe it would make sense to add some of the details of the Ottava bracket to the line spanner interface, such as having hooks or flare on the lines endpoints. After all it does not do any harm, but it can come in handy (and it might just make ly:ottava-bracket::print obsolete).
