Description

Describe the bug
It you tie a note to a chord with both it and another note in the same line or space (modified upwards from the original note), the original note will gain the appropriate accidental and refuse to have it removed or adjusted in any way.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
image
then add an F# on the second note:
image
The accidental which applies to the already-sounding pitch (F natural in this case) cannot be deleted or hidden.

Expected behavior
There probably shouldn't be an accidental there in the first place because it's tied, but it definitely shouldn't be indestructible
