Thanks for your suggestions! I'd rather avoid doing manual line-breaks,
as lilypond does the line-breaking well in general. At the scales that
this is an issue, decreasing the gap wouldn't help either. Somebody else
pointed me towards \once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding = #1,
and this works well. For now, I'm just overriding the padding for the
entire section to be 1.5, and this does a nice job with the glissandi,
although it spaces out the whole section way too much (as expected). At
least this lets me and others see where the glissandi are, and when I
clean up the score I'll look into using the skips like you suggest.
Thanks again!

Hi Ben
I would like to suggest three (more or less sophisticated) solutions
for your problem:
- you could insert additional line breaks to increase the distance
between notes
- decrease the gap between note and glissando:
\once \override Glissando#'gap = #0.1 (standard value is 0.5)
- (my favourite) use skips as spacers between the notes:
c4 \glissando s8 d4*1/2
you can even shift both notes symmetrically (see code bellow)

\version "2.8.3"

upper = \relative c' {
c4 d4*3/4 c4 \glissando s8 d4*3/4
c4 d c4 \glissando s8 d4*1/2
}
lower = \relative c' {
c4 c c c c c c c
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
\new Staff = "lower" \lower

\layout {

}
