you can actually make a regular barline to do what you want - just
need to do some engraver juggling:
\version "2.16.0"
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\remove "Timing_translator"
\remove "Default_bar_line_engraver"
}
\context {
\Staff
\consists "Timing_translator"
\consists "Default_bar_line_engraver"
}
}
<<
{ a a \bar ":" a a a a }
{ b b b b b b }
>>
i've found this by looking at some polymetric snippet in the docs.
