They start too late and end too soon. The latter is more important.
Some hand-engraved score could help deciding this. Generally I feel
that the < and > mark should include the noteheads they belong to.
I think that < > _do_ belong to the notehead; their beginning looks
good to me. It's the ending
that's troubling. A few weeks ago there was some discussion about
adding something for cresc and dim:
c4\< c2.\!!
which would draw the crescendo until the end of c2., instead of to the
beginning. However, the Lilypond developers have been very busy.
Patches always appreciated. :)
