Thanks for adding this! I don't see why LilyPond shouldn't have it if there might be someone who will expect it to be there. This is great! I agree that it should be #x and not x#. Can I make a request while you're in the mode? Can we please, please, PLEASE, make the double flat look correct? It has always looked so odd to me to have the left flat be condensed while the other is normal width. I know it will mean the glyph will get a little bit wider, but it just looks so wrong to me. In all of printed literature that I've seen they are always full-width flats, even when overlapping. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this way. The condensed look is way more obvious in the triple flat and so my request there would be the same (i.e., all flats the original width instead of only the right-most one and the others condensed). Thanks again, Abraham
