OK, another example: In regression/chord-name-entry.ly, there is a chord 
c:7^5. Which IMHO should be considered a chord, but when writing the chord 
name, it is written as a plain C7. Does anyone know about any standard 
notation for this chord?


(and in the piece I was typesetting, my c^3 was IMHO a "real" chord.. 
harmonically it was a subdominant, but we removed the 3rd to make it sound 
more neutral and less outstanding. But never mind.)
