Ah. Ok!

Well, you can *insert* grobs using the edition-engraver. That's not my feature 
request. I want to take an *existing* grob in an *existing* context and 
"transport" it somewhere else — like this, but without having to use 
extra-offset:

\version "2.18.2"

upper = { c''2 r }
dyn = { s2\f s-\tweak extra-offset #'(0 . -8.75) -\p }
lower = { \clef bass c'2 c }

\new PianoStaff <<
  \new Staff \upper
  \new Dynamics \dyn
  \new Staff \lower
>>

Cheers,
Kieren.
