------------------------
There were madrigals written with quarter tones centuries ago, but you
have already looked at them, right? :-)
If you are going to use more than one tonality, you need 3/4, 5/4, and
7/4 tone sharps and flats also, so that you can have symmetry in the way
you write in various tonalities. Are you going to use equal temperament?
Why? I think you underestimate the problems with having many keys.
Perhaps it would be wiser to write everything transposed to Do-C, so
that all you need is the half flat and half sharp, and so that each note
can have the constant pitch of your choice. I think, and said many
months ago, that lilypond should have transposition clefs anyway. I'm
sure that designs have been out there for a long time. But I can't help
but wonder what a ReHalfFlat clef would look like? :-)
