Look at the attached image.  Isn't it possible to virtually split a
volta bracket into three parts, namely left, middle, and right,

  ___       ______________       _
  |1.   +                    +    |

where the middle part has a much smaller vertical extension than the
left and right part?  This would make a much better skyline.

    It's not immediately clear to me what you're proposing... you'd like to have a
    non-horizontal line for the first volta bracket?  Or just to allow less padding
    between a high note in the middle of a volta bracket, compared to the amount of
    padding required for a high note the beginning or ending of the bracket?

    It is the second: Currently the whole volta bracket takes up a rectangle, even
    though just the top edge is used in the middle. This causes brackets like in the
    example to be shifted up far more then is actually required/desired.
    What would be desirable is that the extents of the volta bracket is composed of
    three rectangles (two for the downward lines and one for the horizontal line, which
    has much smaller vertical extent).

    BTW, I'm running into the very same problem with a Strauss Waltz...

    If someone starts working on this issue, he could also try to solve
    issue 1325 in the same time.

    Thanks in advance.

    Patchy the autobot says: LGTM.  input/regression/tablature-tie-behaviour.ly seems quite tight, combining visually into a box with the barline and a whiteout slur.  What does the literature show in similar cases?  7 lines introduce whitespace errors.

    Volta brackets that suggest a continuous box with the bar lines seem fine.

    The book by Ted Ross, chapter 4, shows a style where the volta bracket joins with the bar line, and calls it "not uncommon".  The more typical examples in Ross and Stone have a gap a bit less than a staff space, from the top of the bar line to the vertical bit of the volta bracket.
