Graham Breed wrote a file for equal temperaments for an earlier version of 
LilyPond, which I was able to tweak for the latest version (discussed on the 
devel list). When using the currently available microtonal symbols, then also 
key signatures seemed to work fine - a problem in the past.

So it seems that all one has to do in order to get decent microtonality into 
LilyPond is to include this version of Graham’s file in the distribution and 
add microtonal symbols so that they can be called like the ones currently 
available.
