Some time ago, somebody asked to the list how to transcribe the so
called "musica ficta".
In the Renaissance era, some of the accidental were not put on the
score, although they were supposed to be sung.
Modern editors put a small accidental on top of the note.
See a good description in the message

Mats gave us a solution in the message
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2002-09/msg00161.html
but as it was pointed out, this solution does not transpose nor is
exported to the MIDI file.
Somebody even suggested a possible syntax.
In the documentation I do not see any reference to "musica ficta", is it
already implemented? will it be in the future?
I think it is an important feature.
Thank you very much
