Personally, I don't like any of those and lean towards excluding

Letting only TabStaff display quarter-tones.
I'm of the same opinion as it doesn't/shouldn't really matter
pitchwise where exactly you
place your finger within a fret space on a fretted instrument.
I'm no guitarist, but don't they sometimes pull sideways on the string
or use a mechanical attachment to sharpen a note?
Yes, pull-offs are quite common but it's rather a technique to pluck
the
string with your fretting hand. With "mechanical attachment" you're
probably alluding to a capo. It acts like a sort of artificial
"barre". It fits around the neck of the guitar and raises the pitch of
all (or only some of the) strings. LilyPond already displays capo
indications as a thick bar
in fret diagrams. Bottlenecks are also used to sharpen or lower a
note. It works like some sort of a "movable fret".
But I've never seen quarter tone indications in fret diagrams.
Cheers,
Patrick
I was thinking of things like these:

BTW: Did you deliberately not reply to the list?
No. I'm stuck using an unfamiliar web-mail interface while my main
computer is being repaired; I must have hit the wrong button. Thanks
for noticing.
