Re: roman numerals

[Curt]

Well that's just half-dim, but the other one is a good point.  There are plenty 
of 
jazz chords with extensions that would be valuable to notate in roman numerals.
V7 #11 b9 for instance.  #5, b13, whatever.

It seems like so much of this could be enabled just by allowing chord mode
to accept upper and lower case roman numerals as well as pitch names.  That's 
not the same use case (and probably not the same solution) as multi-row 
functional 
theory analysis below the staff, but I think it is a plenty valuable feature 
for 
lilypond to support.
