The problem with this workaround is that the arpeggio is simply a
markup attached to the note, rather than being a part of the chord
name, which is a markup. Perhaps really thorough reading of 2.7.2
displaying chords -> chord name exceptions will lead you to figure
out how to get it to work. I've really only used chordmode once, and
I never felt like I understood what I was engraving.
Great, that worked. This is still a workaround, but given that I don't
want to use the major 7 (at least for now) for its original purpose, I
can just say to overwrite it with arpeggioGuitar then I get what I
wished. For the reference, below is the the current version.
Thanks! :)
