That would be cool. But of course this would require a very specific
mentoring skill set.

What do you mean exactly? Determining the chord name from the figures
and displaying it?
Carl, could that be merged into the chord structure project?

Do you mean a way to access the extended font features from LilyPond, so
I can get real caps or swash alternates etc.? Or is there even more to it?
Abraham, do you think you'd be capable of mentoring such a project?
@everybody: it's no problem to be listed on multiple projects. In the
end you're not even allowed to actually mentor two projects, so there's
no risk of being talked into eventually ;-)
