One thing I think you would need is the ability to set the likely rate
of chord change - figured bass is an ambiguous notation even when the
figures are relatively complete (and they are rarely that) - but on the
question of whether a note is to be treated as a passing note or a
harmony note it is

hmm, correction, late-period scores sometimes use the extender line to
do that ...

Hi Malte,
Almost all my music typesetting involves typesetting figured bass, and
in addition I have created a way of realizing figured bass by playing on
a MIDI keyboard (see the demo at https://vimeo.com/62426412 ). I have
used this to create LilyPond engraved scores which a keyboard player
found

Hi everybody,
a few weeks ago my father asked me whether there is a tool that
automatically realizes figured bass (I think you say “realize” for the
act of composing the right hand accompaniment, don’t you?). I didn’t
know such a tool, so I wrote a simple one in Haskell but this wasn’t
clever
