It turns out that all you need to add the following to the appropriate context (Dynamics, in your case): \override DynamicText.extra-spacing-height = #'(-inf.0 . +inf.0) That should get you on your way! I've always been puzzled that extra-spacing-width doesn't change this at all (maybe I just don't know how to use it properly). The LyricText grob does this SpanBar collision avoidance by default, so I was confused as to why DynamicText couldn't do the same. BTW, this does NOT work with 2.18.2, but it does with 2.19.35 at least. Haven't checked the other devel versions. Anyway. There you go.
