I would be very interested in an option to suppress accidentals when notes are
tied over line breaks.
Since lilypond's current behavior in this regard is not a bug, is there some
place to post a feature request for suppressing accidentals in this case?

On a related note, how complex is the process of fixing the tie & time signature
collision bug?  How does one go about sponsoring a fix like this?
