Well, your system can't do anything that abc can't do already. All your proposal does is to bring in a more difficult readability and significant problems with parsing to midi or other code. I can't see there are any advantages in it. Since all of us use abc since years and are perfectly accustomed to read it - whenever I write down a piece of music from MP3 or minidisc I listen to a line, write it down, play it once more and compare what I hear to what I have written (without converting the written to sheet music), I'd say that making any such changes would force me to learn a new system although the old one works perfectly well.
