Example:
- Select key "C"
- Enter Ebj in the first bar, then there is an Ebj7.
- then set the key of the piece to "E" (without transposing)
- Then enter D#j in the next bar and voilá: D#j7 appears next to Ebj7.

Usually it's even possible to mix enharmonic chord symbols such as EbMaj7 and D#Maj7 simply via editing - no need to get engaged in any key changing gymnastics.

There is one use case, though, where this approach won't work -> whenever some transposition is active, as is often the case with saxophone players, say, mixing of enharmonic chord symbols is not supported.

That's most likely the case whenever transposition is active and certainly may lead to frustration.

This use case might deserve attention with some future update.
