Implementation notes
These accidentals were not actually proposed by Richard Stein or Bernd Zimmermann, but are instead logical extensions of their symbols adding arrows to provide options for notating slight pitch modifications1.
1. Gould, ibid., page 96 acknowledges the Stein-Zimmermann accidentals as the most commonly-used symbols with fixed meanings; however, the extensions provided here do not have fixed meanings. ↩
