It's not all that hard to do. Just let \key run through the current
notename language and replace all single-character note names with the
setting from the new key (Germans would likely be furious about what
this does to b but then they are hardly the target for such a change).
Once you start arranging your input in variables (\global anyone?), work
with multiple voices and transpositions, things will start to fall
apart.
Even things like \transpose c f become ambiguous since they could mean
\transpose cn fs when uttered in \key gn \major.

s/refused/omitted/. I cannot remember anybody asking for such links
yet, so one can hardly accuse him of "refusing".
