Besides Nathan's code below, you might be able to use the
"Ferneyhough" hairpins.
Can you provide an usage example of these partial hairpins? How would
they behave over line breaks?

Yes, this would work
Instead of using a markup, why not use ly:line-interface::line
(available from 2.19.27)? This gets thickness from the grob--and any
other line attributes you want, so you can create dashed hairpins,
whatever. There's no need adjust thickness in this case.
