accidentals above the staff?

Is it possible to force typesetting an accidental above the staff,
instead of on the notes?  On an accidental-by-accidental basis rather
than for a whole piece.

This is common in pre-baroque pieces when most accidentals were left out
of the score because every performer knew what to do; modern editors
generally restore them and put them above the staff to denote that they
are editorial (called "musica ficta").

Thanks,
karl
