Hello!
How to make a split system, like in the attached file?
Hi Rus,
this is going to be a few pointers to semi-solutions, that's all I can
offer.
The closest I know which can be achieved (fairly) easily is what Simon
Bailey used for the coda here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-12/msg01086.html
Although I did not see his code, I assume he used \stopStaff, plus some
tweaks like here:

Thomas Morley wrote a more involved approach to allow for braces and
brackets, which I only found a few minutes ago when looking for Simon's
mail in the archive:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-12/msg01027.html
It also works for braces instead of brackets if you change the \addBar
invocation (see, e.g., line 344 of the Lily file attached there) to "{"
instead of "["; but you need to manually adjust the padding (kerning)
and size of the brace. In particular, the approach is not robust to
changes in vertical spacing AFAICS.
I am not aware of any clean solution (\stopScore / \startScore, anyone?)
that interrupts all staves at once and then redraws the Score-level
braces and brackets at an arbitrary point in the system. Also, I do not
know whether you can access the positions of the original system braces
at a certain point in time to manually draw them with the same settings.
I once spent several hours trying to figure out a way to do it, but
it's beyond my current knowledge. Which does /not/ mean impossible, of
course...
HTH anyway,
Alexander
