The change suggested by Graham will space out the
notes more, but if the note length is increased in
this way fewer notes are fitted into the measure,
which is probably not what you want.
To avoid this, you can internally change the length
of the measure like this:
c4 c c c
\set Score.measure
The lyric extender is actually drawn as a long thin box with rounded
corners. AFAIK there is no easy way to replace this with any other sort of
symbol, but maybe someone can prove me wrong.

Statistics for NR (pdf dated 2008-08-09, only slightly stale):
