I think that

a. we are storing chords in the wrong way. In retrospect, I find

   root + list of (step, alteration) tuples

more logical

b. using the octave to store different variants is misuse of that
less-than-perfect storage model.  I think that we should have some
kind of ChordAlternativeEvent to store the extra information.
