Basically Jan did all of the grunt work. He wrote the basic functionality
into lily and I poked around in chord-names.scm until I figured out the
basic pattern. Once I had that figured out, I asked Jan about implementing
a few more ideas to make the mechanism even more flexible and he put them
in. So, basically, Jan did all of the hard work and I just went in
afterwards and put in the interval patterns and label formatting.

How they should appear in the output, of course. As for the latter, you'll
have to talk to Han-Wen... ;-)
