FYI, I have now submitted a new pull request that turns on WYTIWYG mode for
chord symbols in new scores by default:

https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/382

This replaces my previous pull requests that implemented MusicXML
import/export of unrecognized chords - the last technical hurdle to
achieving WYTIWYG mode - but did not actually make WYTIWYG mode the default. 
The current pull requests includes the MusicXML support as well as the
changes to make WYTIWYG the default for new scores.

In Style / General / Chordname, there are now three main options, presented
as radio buttons: Standard, Jazz, and Custom.  The Custom option allows you
to specify a chord description file as in the past; older scores are
automatically set this way.  Scores created from scratch or from most
existing templates will default to Standard chord style, which will render
chord symbols very similarly to the old stdchords.xml (fairly plainly except
for the replacement of "b" and "#" with flat and sharp), but in WYTIWYG
fashion.  The Jazz Lead Sheet template defaults to Jazz chord style, which
renders very similarly to the old cchords_muse.xml (using MuseJazz and lots
of fancy formatting), but also in WYTIWYG fashion.
