There are a couple of peculiar side effects. I find that using this turns off the bar count engraver and it also defeats \improvisationOn resulting in regular notes instead of parallelogram note heads. The easy workaround is to use \jazzOff before \improvisationOn. The appearance of the stems and such is different but it's not a huge deal.
I find this to be a very nice addition to the visual palette of LilyPond and very friendly for jazz players who are used to "Real Book" style charts. I find the chord names a touch small but that is easily remedied; for someone not as old as me and not using an iPad to display charts on the bandstand, the size of the chord name font is probably fine. Thanks for this, Torsten, it is much appreciated. The music font is very readable. There is a really messy and inelegant way to use the font in the \header block using \markup, I have found, but it's pretty ugly coding. I suppose a Scheme function could be created to make the code less ugly but I haven't put any time into it.
