One of the big complications that can arise here is that chord voicings can be quite different from a standard triad or tetrad in plain inversion, though perhaps(!) this is more of a jazz thing than in other music forms.

I'm thinking here particularly of quartal and quintal voicings, and polychord voicings, where the chord notes, quite possibly plus some extensions, can be in a significantly different order from those in a triad, inverted or not. Similar with shell voicings. It would be reasonable to play a shell in the left hand and, say, stacked fourths or fifths in the right hand (I wish ... keep practicing Gordon). Voice leading also means typically that one is moving between root positions and inverted positions.

I guess there might be feasible to add checkboxes and/or radio buttons, e.g. "favour quartal voicings", but it seems to me fraught with issues.
