Erroneous annotation of chords in version 4.4
German chord notation assumes that the B-flat note is the "B" symbol, and the C note is the "H".
But in version 4.4, I enter the characters "B" or "Bm" in German notation, and the program itself adds a flat character to the letter "B".
This is a mistake that needs to be fixed!

B becomes H on German, C stays C.
If you want Hm, type Hm.
The German B gets a flat attached as a compromise, to avoid confusion.
You may try Full German

Full German is a completely different entity.
I'm talking about a program error that (unlike version 3) outputs the chord name incorrectly!
Flat is not allowed in the German chord system with the letter "B".

No bug there, Mu3 and M4 behave exactly the same when German chords are selected
Bm turns into Bflatm
Hm stays Hm
Switching to 'Normal' chords and Bflat stays Bflat, H turns into B
Switching to Full German chords and Bflatm turns into Bm and Hm stays Hm, but H#m turns into Hism, Hbm into Bm and Eb turns into Es
Been that way ever since, even in Mu1 and Mu2

Reason for B to show the flat is to be able to tell it appart from the international B, in absence of a German H chord you'd otherwise not be able to tell Normal chords from German chords and not know whether an unadorned B is an H or a Bflat
