Well, I'm not entirely sure being on system break or not affects this
question. If an accidental is tied across a barline it seems to me
it raises the question of subsequent identical pitches in the
following bar in either case, so that adding an accidental - probably
NOT courtesy but normal - should be the norm, as others are saying.
Well, by traditional European convention there should definitely not be
an accidental on a tied over note unless the tie goes over a system
break. All the editions I listed completely go by this convention.
I also think this is influenced by the presence or lack of key
signature. My own work is almost entirely without key signature, and
I think that adds another level of necessity for clarity. When sight
reading music "with" a key signature I think my tendency would be to
revert to the non-accidental note in the situation we're discussing.
Ah, for music without a key sig, and even more so for atonal music the
case may indeed be different. I wouldn't know, I don't do that kind of
music very often.
