Enforce Scale is limited to Major Scale.

It would be advantageous to integrate more scales. Not only western scales.
Chromatic, Ionian, Dorian, Harmonic Minor, Indian, Oriental, Japanese, Pelog, etc....
example:

@riban-bw suggests these parameters :

Scale: Defines the relative offsets of each note in each scale, e.g. Chromatic, Major, Minor, etc.
Tonic: Defines the base note of the scale, e.g. C, C#, D, etc.

It would be great if there was, at least, a "Minor" option. But this probably won't happen due to backwards compat:

However I think it would be preferable to create a new plugin (based on chords) instead of modifying the existing one.
(Changing control parameters of plugins that are used and potentially automated in existing sessions is bad practice)

and because there already is a solution for minor scales at least, which is to use the corresponding relative major.

I'd like to avoid adding redundant scales. That'll soon get out of hand.

For me, having to dig into music theory that deep is hard when all I want is to add a bit of colour. So I would also like to just see a clearer list of scales to toggle between, à la the this you gave above, or a full chromatic (i.e. all 24 semitones in the two octaves above the tonic) scale to toggle on/off like suggested in #18. But it sounds like it's going to have to be done in a fork.
