You can find an example of a chord notated as 'phrygian' (well
it's more a
modal indication, but that's what the composer Gary Peacock
intended) in the
lead sheet for Vignette.
More arguments for using names: Alt is much more easy to write and
read, less
error prone than: 7.3-.5-.9-.11-.13-
So if Alt is always (or primarily) 7.3-.5-.9-.11-.13- we should add
an alt
modifier to LilyPond. Then, we could say c:alt, and get just what the
composer intends. And then we should have the ChordNames context
generate
CAlt.
