In working through refman.itely I saw 'upstep' and would suggest that
"pick-ups" or "pick-up notes" would be better.  While I understood "upstep"
it sounded like a direct translation.  I've never run across "upstep"
besides in LilyPond docs.

As a hacker term it would be fairly recent and may not have had time to
percolate down to any "authoritative" reference.

We have the word "prefix" in English but it normally carries a grammatical
connotation (e.g. "inbound" vs "outbound").  Using "prepend(-ing, -ed)"
seems appropriate to me in this context.  "Prefix" wouldn't feel right to me.
