Inconsistent interpretation of intervals in chord mode |

Hey all,
in chord mode the basic seventh step added to a tonic is the flattened seventh
(e.g. c:1.7). Diminished sevenths and major sevenths can be achieved by
suffixing a '-' or '+' to the number (e.g. c:1.7- or c:1.7+). But this
interpretation changes when the notes extend beyond the range of one octave.
c:1.14 is now interpreted as a major seventh, c:1.14+ and c:1.14- are now
displayed as an augmented major seventh and a flattened seventh, respectively
(see attachment). Currently it's not possible at all to display a diminished
seventh one octave higher. So this looks like a bug to me.
\version "2.19.21"
intervals = \chordmode {
c1:1.7
c1:1.7+
c1:1.7-
c1:1.14
c1:1.14+
c1:1.14-
