I've seen it fairly frequently. This sort of effect is also notated like
so:
{
c''1~\p\<
c''16\f r8. r4 r2
}
Basically, we are trying to indicate a note lasting a whole note, which
ends at a certain dynamic. The above notation is imprecise, of course, but
at least it helps guard against the tendency of instrumentalists to cut
notes short :)
