I've been satisfied with exporting the RG as a MusicXML file, importing 
it into Musescore, and setting Musescore to do tablature. That lets me 
do things like specify open/alternate tunings. Another option is 
Tuxguitar, but Musescore does a better job of printing. Tuxguitar lets 
you specify the player's ability level, which is kind of nice. I don't 
know if Musescore can to that. I haven't done much tablature lately.

I think adding it to RG while maintaining the ability to also 
display/edit it *as a score* would be really tough.
