I think it's reasonable. It's a pain for me to implement in Muse
because in a lot of places I carry the keysig as an integer, so
there's a deal of rewriting (and of course it affects the layout
engine and the player and the file format and menus and
dialogs and Ctrl-arrow editing and I'd need to think about
MIDI input too).
There are a few middle eastern tunes that I've started playing
which need a key signature of two sharps and a flat. I find it
offensive to see them written as just two sharps, so maybe...
