I'd say there is no point in providing different input languages. On
the other hand, it would look plain ugly to spell a well-known fugue
theme as { bes a c b } rather than using German note names.
It might be argued on that grounds that German note names should be
canonical: I know of no other note name language that has been employed
similarly for silly acronyms and word games.
Well, almost. When writing ut queant laxis
<URL:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ut_queant_laxis>, French note names
would be more appropriate. Oh, we don't have them. The Italian note
names use "do" rather than "ut". I have a Swiss accordion score from
1933 here, and it uses "ut" throughout. Maybe it's just Swiss French,
or obsolete Swiss French.
