Just thinking...
Here's a rough path drawing that could do the job:

\version "2.19.19"

\markup {
  \combine
  \with-color #magenta
  \path #0.3 #'(
     (moveto   1.17   -0.50)
     (curveto   1.24   -0.53   1.33  -0.43   1.24  -0.36)
     (curveto   0.76   -0.07   0.82   0.57   1.49   0.62)
     (curveto   2.50    0.60   2.54  -0.65   1.77  -0.84)
     (curveto   0.89   -1.02   0.50  -0.54   0.35  -0.20)
     (curveto   0.26    0.00   0.07   0.63   1.18   1.77)
     (curveto   2.04    2.70   2.19   3.28   1.81   4.20)
     (curveto   1.63    4.62   1.52   4.71   1.49   4.76)
     (curveto   1.47    4.79   1.43   4.79   1.40   4.76)
     (curveto   1.09    4.51   0.84   4.15   0.82   3.70)
     (curveto   0.80    3.00   0.88   2.70   1.03   2.15)
     (curveto   1.35    1.00   1.48   0.51   1.69  -0.90)
     (curveto   1.93   -2.80   0.68  -2.44   0.57  -2.09)
     (curveto   1.30   -2.34   1.25  -1.07   0.49  -1.39)
     (curveto   0.32   -1.48   0.23  -1.61   0.28  -1.90)
     (curveto   0.39   -2.72   2.12  -3.04   1.85  -0.95)
     (curveto   1.62    0.70   1.52   0.90   1.21   2.10)
     (curveto   0.75    3.46   1.14   3.90   1.64   4.20)
     (curveto   1.86    3.49   1.70   3.05   1.10   2.31)
     (curveto   0.08    1.24   0.00   0.80   0.00   0.45)
     (curveto   0.00   -0.51   0.73  -1.20   1.72  -1.00)
     (curveto   2.98   -0.72   2.80   1.15   1.45   1.04)
     (curveto   0.50    0.95   0.52  -0.25   1.17  -0.50)
     )
  \translate #'(0.015 . 0)
  \musicglyph #"clefs.G"
}

Note: X translation is 0.5 * 'line thickness'

The "only" problem is to find a way to get all glyphs coordinates
automagically ...

Cheers,
Pierre
