It's rather error-prone since it means that you cannot ever use
copy-and-paste for any piece of music since its meaning will change
depending on where you copy it.  I assume that you are _not_ typing what
gets typeset but instead a version relative to the current key in
effect.  If you are _indeed_ typing what gets typeset, the meaning of a
phrase would change even when just repeating it displaced by non-whole
measures.  Irrespective of that, you cannot copy into a different key,
or move a key change across some passage to make it scan better.
