Thanks, that works perfectly - the "meno f" is exactly aligned with the 
other dynamics.

I tried using the template, and slightly changed the overrides, hoping to 
get the
markup inside the Dynamics context to behave like the rest of the dynamics:

%      \override TextScript #'font-size = #2
%      \override TextScript #'font-shape = #'italic
      \override DynamicText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)
      \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)   % not in the 
original template
      \override Hairpin #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)

But for some reason, the markup is slightly higher than the dynamics.
I can fix this patchily, of course, but I'd prefer to understand what's 
going on.
Can anyone shed light on this?

Thanks,
        Yuval
