I hope to send something more specifically about chords after some rest.

Here are my 2cents:
Defining the chords by a list of notes for jazz tunes can't ever cover all sorts of voicings. Fortunately, this isn't at all needed for typesetting e.g. a jazz-tune. It is sufficient to only have the root note, e.g. C from C:m7, in a musical/transposeable context, the rest of the chord(here m7) could just be represented as text as-it-is.

Maybe, from this point of view, there could be an alternative method for typestting chords be implemented?
