LilyPond’s current system is just fine: it follows how staff notation works, 
and can easily be extended to other pitch systems, as in the C++14 code I 
already have written.

LilyPond’s lacks accidental operator syntax, though. An accidental is an 
interval of scale degree 0 that is added to a note. So one might introduce the 
notion of intervals as well.
