Ok, I set up session start times for a few of the crosses. here is what happens:

for the symbols that have new bar at 5 pm. a new bar does start. however it is duplicate of just finished daily bar, until the normal start time of 12 am, at which point the bar gets converted to encompass only the activity since 5 pm.

for symbols whose sessions have not been modified per the link you posted, current price activity is reflected in the same bar, until 12 am, at which point, all the activity since 5 pm is converted into a new daily bar.

i can of course, manually refresh the latest bars everyday, but for 50 - 60 crosses, this gets cumbersome.

interestingly, a new bar starts at 5 pm on Sun, and an additional new daily bar is created at midnight, no matter what the time settings for a symbol. this only happens at the Sun. - Mon. transition.
