Here are a couple of options I can think of.
1. You could use a FiguredBass context, with roman numeral markups
instead of numbers. This is very easy, and would survive
transposition.
2. You could define your own chord names, as Kieren defines later.
This would require some Scheme hacking, but there is probably a lot
of existing structure to support it.
3. You could put the roman numerals as markups on the notes. This is not
elegant, but is easy and survives transposition.
There are probably other things you could do, but I can't think of them
right now.
