I think that if you do that, microtonal accidentals will still not work in key
signatures. For that, one has to tweak the sources, and recompile LilyPond. Key
signatures with microtonal accidentals are used in for example Persian and
Turkish music.
But it might be possible to look around for number of microtonal suggestions,
and include them in a font that comes with the LilyPond distribution.
