Follow-up question; wouldn't it be good to have this setting as the

You can, in a way, set it as the default by using an override instead of a tweak:...
Certainly! You can even do the setting for all scores of the current file by adding
\layout{
\context{
\Score
\override DynamicTextSpanner.to-barline = ##t
}
}
(or even putting these lines in an include file together with all
other favorite settings of yours).
My question was on the default behavior in LilyPond, where
to-barline is true by default for hairpins but not for the
extender lines of textual dynamics. I have just ordered a copy of
E. Gould's "Behind bars" (which now is available in paperback at a
much lower price than the earlier bound version), but before it
arrives I don't know if she has anything authoritative to say
about best typesetting practice in this situation.
