\endSpanners will not do, because it only tells LilyPond the decrescendo
should end on the next not (which is conventionally printed as ending at 
the bar-line if the next note would be in the next bar).

The new dynamic is not printed under the next note, but some fraction
of the way along the current note.

I guess there is good reason the manual shows the method with 
simultaneous streams of music; it is more generally useful.
