Parallel dynamics, markup, sponsor, etc.

In most music I see out there, I've noticed that related dynamics (and often markup) are usually parallel (such that if you drew a horizontal line, it would meet both at the same vertical position). In fact, I'm hard pressed to think of a situation where they're not in the sheet music I've seen

It's a nice idea, however i'd prefer that LilyPond would do this more automatically (the less input user needs to type the better). Lily forgets about dynamics that are not related to any other dynamics, i.e. too far apart (like 2 full measures apart or 30 staff spaces apart) … It's a good
