I have made a remark that explicit accidentals may be
applied to the individual notes, by software that
cannot print key signatures.

It is reasonable to reduce any bar lines or repeat
symbols that you cannot handle to a simpler form.
I.e. reduce "|:::" to "|:"

What you call "strange" key signatures, is standard
notation among musicologists, Klezmer musicians etc.
Finale can certainly deal with them, even a simple
program like Noteworthy Composer has support for them!

If there are any other features that you would consider
non-standard, let us know.
