Diminished 7th chords are rejected and replaced with half-diminished 7ths (diminished triad + minor 7th), but I found a way round that by renaming Bdm7 as Ddim/B.

There is no need to restrict the chords that can be used to those named on the list. All that is needed is an option to name the notes. Unusual chords like F#, C#, E#, A, D# would not be a problem. Scales-chords.com (formerly Chord Namer) calls that F#m(maj13) but also lists other possibilities.

  Also, how about adding a simple text field on top of each chord so users can enter whatever information they want. No having this ability is very frustrating and limits the use of this very useful application. I would personally use this field to end the melody note on each chord change because I use Chordify to work out the melody of songs. 
  
  The implementation of this would be extremely trivial so why has this never been done?
