Chord Symbol playback
I was thinking that MuseScore could use some improvements related to chord symbols. One of these improvements is the playback of chord symbols. How do you guys feel about this? And if this were to be added, how should it be done? There could be notes generated on the score itself, or it could be done in the background just for playback. In both cases, how should the rhythms and voicings be? Any thoughts?

Let me know if I shouldn't have posted this in two places. I asked about where to ask for some feedback and was told that it'd be good to post in both places so it's what I thought to do. I definitely understand if it's unwanted though!

In the past, this feature has been requested.
One extensive discussion can be found here:

(It's an interesting read.)
Sure, most people would welcome such a feature, but a consensus is needed concerning the exact details for implementation.
Feel free to add to that forum post exactly how you envision a chord symbol playback feature to function.
I made a Musescore 3.0 plugin that expands chord symbols into notes. It can handle most chords including complex jazz chords. Try it and let me know what you think. The plugin is here... https://musescore.org/en/project/expand-chord-symbols-notes
