I just remembered a piece by Luciano Berio: Leaf, the second of 6 encores
for piano edited by Universal edition that has this (a beautiful piece by
the way). In two cases the dynamics go right before the stems and
everything goes a little to the right and in another it goes above an
ascending cross staff. On the other hand the dynamics never changes during
a cross staff, only before it.
I can send a pdf but I don't know if this causes some copyright issues.

If I remember something else I'll write.
