Description

Your idea

When a dynamic is selected and "Add hairpin: crescendo" (shift+,) or "Add hairpin: diminuendo" (shift+.) are used, a hairpin should be created starting at the dynamic.

(The opposite of #34200)

Problem to be solved

More ergonomic dynamic creation.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Shift+, and Shift+. shortcut handlers for dynamic and hairpin creation, then compare the requested behavior with issue #34200. Done means selecting a dynamic and using either shortcut creates the corresponding crescendo or diminuendo hairpin starting at that dynamic.
