I don't think that it is currently possible.
Then, you might ask it to become a sponsored feature.
And, if so, maybe a 1/12 tone base might be a better choice:

Thanks; it works wonders.
Now that I know how to do all that, I'm wondering, can
you notes three fourths
of the way flat or sharp? Let's say C three fourths
sharp would be like
cis minus half of an eh, if that makes any sense. In
other words, can we have
eighth-tones? Like C plus three eighth

There is an alternative format for defining the signature
Thanks for the information! I have another related
question, now, though.
I've found that the following code will get the key
signature to look right:
\new Staff
{
\set Staff.keySignature = #'( ((1 . 4) . 2) ((1 .
1) . 2) )

Yes, see:

I'll bet you can (and if not is it sponsor-able?) but in
2.6.x the first manual says
"This command (\key pitch type) set the context property
Staff.keySignature. Non standard key signatures can be
specified by setting the property directly."
However a later version of the manual leaves out the

which shows that it is possible. Unfortunately you have to look
