IMHO, you already have an answer and you can already know what is possible and what will remain possible in the future:
1) If you are planning to *copy* non standard notation (like Stockhausen, Penderecki etc.) you can simply use LilyPond + Inkscape. Just write a stub with Lilypond for the standard part and then use Inkscape for the non standard part. 2) if you are planning to write new music in non-standard notation, it is impossibile that a notation software will accomplish that, because that notation is not standardized, nor there is a list of rules, nor there is a shared procedure.
