You mean that you would like \cresc and \dim to start on the previous
note, right?

I hope I am following correctly.

For example:

g4 \< g g g \!
g4 \cresc g g g \endcresc

These two examples should have the same behavior, IMO.  That is, the
commands apply to the *previous* note.

I think we need to rework \cresc, \dim, etc. so that they use a
modified version of make-span-event (the procedure \cr, \decr, etc.
use).  Right now, with these commands, a SequentialMusic expression is
created, so the behavior will only apply to notes *following* the
command.
