Has there ever been a solution or workaround for properly transposing

Why not treat the piece with no key signature as if it were in C?
If you had an alto sax part in a piece with no signature, and your
alto sax was soloing over a (concert) C7, would that not just
appear as/transpose to A7 for an alto sax part? Wouldn't it?

You would think, but versions of Finale before 2009 don't do it. If
you want your alto part NOT to have three sharps, you have to use
Chromatic Transposition, and then your chord symbols stay in C until
you transpose them manually on the alto part. Go ahead, try it.
Thanks god that they finally fixed that in 2009.
