For what I've done which includes transcribing pieces for different than the original ensemble it hasn't occurred enough to be a problem. In fact I don't normally use a \global key change just \global timing and dynamics.
I would be glad to continue participating in discussions of more sophisticated ways of doing this. One starting place might be an additional command for transposing from one instrument to another. Certainly the \transpose command makes sense when transposing a phrase from one key to another but is slightly confusing when one is thinking of the keys of the transposing instruments. Probably just a new name for a command which simply reverses the arguments for the existing \transpose command before calling it.
