I actually wanted to make a stopgap solution in Scheme. I wrote some code

calculated yet.
I'd love to be proven wrong, but I don't think you'll have much
success with this approach. At the very least, you'll need a Scheme
engraver at the correct context level to collect the stems at the
right time. If a simple length override were possible with the
current infrastructure, we wouldn't need a Span_arpeggio_engraver to
typeset cross-staff arpeggios.
