What do you think about \at function that David wrote? (see snippet here https://github.com/openlilylib/snippets/tree/master/input-shorthands/articulations-not-aligned-with-notes) The syntax is a bit awkward, but this function already does exactly what we want: allows to insert dynamics and other things in the middle of the note's duration. I think it's very nice. >> - The alignment of the flat sign in text markup like "Clarinet in Bb" is >> difficult.

Thanks to David's work on issue 3330 (http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3330) the spacing between B and flat symbol is better since 2.17.19 (see attached). Of course, the accidental still has wrong size and baseline - i think i could handle that by creating special versions of accidentals for use with text (see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2011-09/msg00353.html). Would you like to sponsor this? For $20 i could add special accidentals to LilyPond font and adjust \flat, \sharp and \natural commands to use them (and maybe others like \semiflat, if i'll have time). best, Janek
