Dear friends,
Since I too need a "long fermata" to place between two (or more) notes,
I've searched around for a solution and I found this thread.
I now managed to draw the symbol in postscript. This is my first attempt
to use postscript: I can imagine this will be very far to be perfect!
Ho
yes, that's not a bad idea. Can you tell me how to do that?

Would it be possible to modify or use slurs and then manually position a dot
near it?

Well, the fix to that one was easy - don't use both glyphshow and show
in the PostScript:
\version "2.13.12"
\relative c' {
c c^\markup {
\postscript #"/Emmentaler-20 findfont 4 scalefont setfont 2.5 1
scale /scripts.ufermata glyphshow"
}
}

Here's a stretched out fermata using PostScript:
\version "2.13.12"
\relative c' {
c c^\markup {
\postscript #"/Emmentaler-20 findfont 4 scalefont setfont 2.5 1
scale /scripts.ufermata glyphshow show"
}
}
Unfortunately, although Lilypond generates the ps file without error,

thanks for your help, I tried your trick, but it seams to only "blow up" the
fermata mark.
I was was hoping for something more adequate, like stretching the fermata
mark or somehow expanding it, I don't know. But thanks once again.

You may try a trick, to put the fermatta between the two notes, using;
tweak #'extra-offset #'(-x . y)
and a markup for the glyph fermata
%%-
%%definition double fermata up & down
dlbupfermata = ^\markup { \huge \musicglyph #"scripts.ufermata" }
dldwnbfermata = _\mark
