[Finale] Chord rant

[Giz Bowe]

I usually do my stuff with JazzFont, but this evening I worked on a small 
project for a friend who didn't have JazzFont, so I used the default 
template with Arial chords -- ARRRGGHHHH!!!!

There's no "7 (b9b13)", just "(b9b13)". There are 2 "7(b13 nat9)"s, though.
Chord symbol 15 is a 13th chord; chord symbol 9 is "m7#5."
There's a Maj6, but no Maj9 -- just M9; no consistency among possible usages.
There's no order to the symbols -- finding anything is a major pain.
Some of the symbols -- does anybody really use  a Maj13 without sharping 
the 11th? Or how about Major 7 sus4?

Also, why can you alter the font for the symbol & alteration after you've 
entered them, but not the suffix? This is true regardless of the font used 
-- it's not specific to Arial chord library.

Thanks for listening.

Giz
