I've never seen arabic, turkish etc chords.
Do they exist in the same manor as in western music?
I really don't know, can't judge.

My concern is already how to deal with
standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist in the _same_ file (not only in a
row of multiple files).
As soon as standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist is changed \sharp et
allies will not render as before anyway.
Happens already for:
#(set! standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist
(append alteration-hufnagel-glyph-name-alist
standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist))
\markup { \doubleflat \flat \natural \sharp \doublesharp }
I can easily imagine some educational text listing accidentals in
western music, arabic music , etc.
The predefined markup-commands for accidentals wouldn't be of much use.
One would need to fall back to \musicglyph anyway.
