Re: new key signatures

[Jay Hamilton, Sound and Silence]

I'll bet you can (and if not is it sponsor-able?) but in 
2.6.x the first manual says
"This command (\key pitch type) set the context property
Staff.keySignature. Non standard key signatures can be 
specified by setting the property directly."

However a later version of the manual leaves out the 
last sentence and the first manual doesn't seem to have 
the information about how to set 'the property directly'.

So I'm confused too.  But I was working with some Bartok 
and the non-standard key signature would have been handy.
