a normal font (with tons of ligatures) which I could use as

that would be the only way that leads to perfect chord symbols. Or am I
completely out? :-)
A ChordName is nothing more than markup at the end of the day. Since
the default stencil is ly:text-interface::print, anything you can do in
\markup you can do in a ChordName. That gives you nearly all the
freedom you would ever need, so there should be nothing to worry.
