I'd create an entry for 'spacing-pair' in define-grobs.scm, too. Similar to MeasureCounter, MultiMeasure Rest and PercentRepeat. https://codereview.appspot.com/571180043/diff/565230043/lily/measure-attached-spanner.cc#newcode141 lily/measure-attached-spanner.cc:141: "break-overshoot " Probably add a regtest for break-overshoot.
