Don't know about such a command.

Above a workaround tweaking Fingering:

\version "2.16.1"

mor =
#(define-event-function (parser location)()
#{
        \tweak #'text \markup { \fontsize #5 \musicglyph #"scripts.mordent" } -1
#})

\relative c' {
        \once \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
        < g c\mor e >
}

HTH,
