I'd like the "+" behaves like an alteration: it can be appended to any

It means the 6th is raised by a semitone; it is often (but not always)
used for the leading-tone (the 7th degree of the scale).
For example, let's take the dominant seventh chord (in C Major ).
Its 3rd inversion (i.e. its position with the 7th at the b
