Thank you, Jean. I missed that in the snippets.

My expectation, given that I have extended the note, is that the 
hairpin would last the duration of that extended note by default, 
rather than stopping at an intervening barline. Is there a reason for 
the current setting to be, what I would consider in simplistic 
thoughts, the wrong way around?
