No need to bother with that before knowing it's the right direction.

Not at all. If you specify the dynamics as two more variables (e.g.
dynOne and dynTwo) you can simply write

    \new Staff = "right" {\right}
    \new Dynamics \dynOne
    \new Dynamics \dynTwo
    \new Staff = "left"  { \left}

(with all the surroundings of course)
(BTW: if you assign *only* the variable to the staff you don't need the
curly braces around it)

I think your solution is pretty straightforward and common.
