It's great that you're willing to sponsor!
But, as your reply is below David's quoted message about Unicode
accidentals, i'm not sure what you'd like to sponsor - could you
clarify?
Unicode accidentals are supported now, but as i already wrote, they
look horrible in my opinon.

I totally recommend using LilyGlyphs!  Their added advantage is that
they are already implemented - you can send money to Urs right away,
he deserves it! :-)
