Hello,

Not sure if it corresponds to your request, but it is possible to get
hairpins between brackets by changing the stencil of Parentheses.

#(define-public (bracket-stencils grob)
  (let ((lp (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:fontsize 3.5 #:translate
(cons -0.3 -0.5) "[")))
        (rp (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:fontsize 3.5 #:translate
(cons 0 -0.5) "]"))))
    (list lp rp)))

{
  \override Parentheses.stencils = #bracket-stencils
  c'1-\parenthesize \< |
  c'1\!
}

Cheers,
Xavier
