By golly! Invisible and inaudible grace notes! Works great! Could I trouble you to explain how that works? The invisible part is straightforward, and I'm guessing the silent rest somehow makes the grace note silent? Also, I ended up using a more complex but more readable syntax: \once \override Rest #'transparent = ##t \grace { g32 \rest \( } c4 g8 c4. \) | Since it wasn't immediately obvious that you took a shortcut by typing in the terms after \grace without any spaces.
