Well, this is perhaps not as simple as it sounds. Take a look at:
{ \key d \major \transpose d' { .. MUSIC HERE .. } }
should the music be entered assuming c \major, d \major or e \major?

In cases like this I usually do
\score {
\notes \transpose cis' {
\key c \major
{ c d e f g a b c }
}
}
(take a look at input/mutopia/R.Schumann/romanze-op28-2.ly )
I don't think that there is much point in continuing this discussion. -
Actually implementing some keysig-relative input should be quite easy -
but I feel very sure that the result would be loads of newbie mails
about transposing commands that behaved differently from expected.
Personally I would also feel annoyed about the key signature being
attached to the music (so that I could not typeset an already entered
piece in i.e. the schoenberg-accidentals resently suggested by
Matthias).
