It really wouldn't be that difficult to make a setting to make-key-signature-chromatics true which would do what it says and leave notes which have accidentals alone.
Yes it would.
This way the music definitions would be context dependent, meaning that the same piece of lilypond code would result in different music depending on the (previously defined) key signature.
Further more I consider it a very ugly construct to refer to the absolute note names with no accidental.
Either you can refer to note names absolutely - where f is one half note above e and one half note below ges, independently of the current time signature.
OR you could refer to note names relatively to the current key signature - in which case for instance "re" would refer to g when in f major and fis when in e major.
The idea that f should refer to a note "near f" but with the exact position specified by the key signature is ugly and very far from the "musical meaning" - imho.
