(almost) all object's stencils are hijack-able in a few lines of Scheme. If you don't want ample space, I'd go w/ a barline, as it'll result in the least # of hacks that you need to get it up and running. You can control spacing between a barline and the objects after it via the space-alist property of the BarLine (or any non-musical grob). Then, you'd just need to override the stencil & make sure to subtract 1 from the measure count after the barline.
