Say what?
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Arabic-music#Arabic-key-signatures

Doc team: I must admit that a link from NR 1.1.3 Key signatures to
that page would help.  Also, how the Mao did I let the "Arabic key
signatures" get added without a working example there?!?!  I suck.

I have no clue (beyond "microtones") what you two have been
talking about, but perhaps Hans should take a serious look at what
is ALREADY WORKING in 2.11.65 before discussing new features.

You'll want to pay special attention to ly/arabic.ly, and make
sure you understand everything that's happening in there.
