Sounds like a good idea. But why square instead of angle? (Or maybe  
that's what you meant). And wouldn't 3/4" or even 1/2" do the job?  
(and be a bit cheaper and more out of the way of things like your  
tuning hammer on A0). And actually you could probably get away with a  
couple small angle brackets on each side. The best fix is deeper  
grooves in the desk and higher profile glides, but that's a lot of work.
