David Wright taught me about dynamics contexts a while back.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-08/msg00471.html

The method suggested there would be something like this:

%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.48"
musicA = {
     g'1 R1
}
musicB = {
     b'1 R1
}

% All spacer rests and dynamics
dyn = {
   s1\> s1\!
}

<<
\new Staff \partcombine \musicA \musicB
\new Dynamics \dyn
 >>
%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

But I've seen some of the work on www.kierenmacmillan.info. :) And I 
won't be a but surprised if you've already tried this method or have 
reasons not to use it.
