I knew there was a reason why I didn't like Sibelius ... 'simple' ways
of working that wind up generating mental pain when you start doing
anything the slightest bit complicated.

The coders got it _right_.  This is another instance of confusion
between data entry and data storage -- see my post elsewhere in this thread:

If you looked in Sibelius' underlying data structures, I doubt you'd see
any 'following the key signature'.
